I think this is simple and makes the most sense, but I'll leave the
discussion
open for another day or two...

Structure
    * <canvas>
    * <import>
    * <include>
    * <library>
Language (some of these reference pages do not yet exist)
    * <attribute>
    * <class>
    * <event>
    * <handler>
    * <interface>
    * <method>
    * <mixin>
    * <passthrough>
    * <setter>

Move to components
    * <splash>
    * <splash view>
    * <contextmenu>
    * <contextmenuitem>
