- Use neutral they to make the user (and in one instance, the
'stereotypical lazy developer') gender neutral. Thanks to hacker news
commenters for raising the issue.
- Various updates and clarifications on cursors (not restricted to black
and white anymore), toolbars & about boxes (we now have a standard
implementation for them), zooming (exemple more strongly showing that
it should be "fit to contents" especially on modern high resolution
displays)
- Reword english in some places

* Sentence casing for the examples of menus etc.
* Use elipses instead of "..."
* As originally proposed in ticket #5010 [1], we went with removing
dynamic menu item labels, e.g. "Show grid" <-> "Hide grid" from
our apps (ProcessController, Magnify, etc.)

This reverts commit 945566ff43.
As discussed on the mailing lists and with Humdinger off-list:
* The general design concensus tends slightly towards DejaVu, as metrics
of DejaVu look much better (DejaVu 12 and Noto 13 are roughly the same size,
but Noto has much wider margins with that)
* While Noto does have a wider set of fonts with support for lots of
different languages, DejaVu actually has built-in support for more
Unicode languages (the default Noto has, as far as I can tell, only
Latin/Greek/Cyrillic [2416 glyphs], while DejaVu also has Armenian, Georgian,
and a few other scripts too [5119 glyphs].)
* The worse rendering of DejaVu appears to have been somewhat rectified by
disabling the average-based subpixel filter in app_server.
Works on Linux, doesn't work on Haiku. It appears xsltproc tries
to fetch the DTD and XSL stylesheets (which doesn't work, for some reason
it wasn't built with HTTP support, and I can't figure out why). Even
when telling it to use the preinstalled XSL & DTDs using --catalog,
it still tries to download the files...
DocBookCSS is a mostly-pure-CSS2 implementation of the DocBook standard.
Unlike DocBookXSL which relies on transforming the XML, it utilizes the
XML-styling features of modern web browsers to display the DocBook.
Its appearance still is a long way from the Haiku Book and Userguide, but
it looks (mostly) the same as the old DocBookXSL so we can stop using that.
Eventually we just need to make DocBookCSS use our styling.
