Same thing for the tables. I just started on Appendix A (a list of Cayenne 
properties) and the big font used for the <code> blocks and the lack of borders 
and backgrounds make them a bit unreadable in either HTML or PDF formats.

Also even though we only have like 5% of the new docs ready, I think this maybe 
the 5% that matters. I almost finished all the DI and ServerRuntime chapters. 
So we should consider publishing this on the site and with the upcoming release.

BTW, working on the docs now allows me to take a user view of the framework, 
and I am noticing things that we can polish a bit. Two most obvious points:

1. DI property names per Appendix A (make them shorter and more symmetrical)

2. Default modeler object naming (UntitledDomain, UntiltledDomainMap) trickles 
to the XML file naming, so we'd rather come up with something that makes sense. 
E.g. "project" for domains (there can be only 1 per project in 3.1), "datamap", 
"datamap1", etc. for DataMaps. These will result in cleaner file names like 
cayenne-project.xml, datamap.map.xml etc.).
