The 'Jump to' links that appear at the top of Phobos documentation probably
should not include methods of struct, class, interface because this obscures
other module level tags e.g. functions.

This is particularly awkward here:
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/phobos/std_container.html

1. The template function 'make' is almost lost in the 'Jump to' list because of
the many methods of the container types.

2. Method links are unpredictable when there are duplicate names. E.g. the
'Jump to' link to 'popFront' goes to SList:Range:popFront, but popFront is also
a method of other container ranges, e.g. Array:Range.

Besides removing methods, an alternative solution for (1) would be to color
methods differently.
