Eli,
I'm confused by an apparent inconsistency in the way you've chosen to
distinguish between "general" and "advanced" options. You've put two
of the subcomponent configuration options, fileQueueView and
decorators, in the Advanced section. But then you have other similar
options, totalProgressBar and focusWithEvent, which you've left in the
general section. Any particular reason?
In general, a user won't need to worry about any subcomponent-related
configuration options unless they do one of two things:
1. Change the default template and want to rebind their selectors
2. Create their own alternative implementations of a subcomponent
That said, I'm wondering if perhaps the our API documentation should
be treated as reference documentation: a comprehensive view of the
features offered by a component. Our tutorials, on the other hand,
would be the place where users are guided through standard and simple
ways of using a component.
If you do think there's a good motivation for distinguishing between
general and advanced options, we should have a clear criteria for each
category, and do this consistently across our documentation.
Thoughts?

I've added some missing options to the Uploader API document and
improved the section on running locally.
One of the things that I did was pull two of the options into a
separate section called advanced options. But I'm not sure about it.
I would love someone to give it a review.
