This seems a good thing to have a more user friendly and direct way to do
it from the source document.

I have read the page you pointed, and it can be pretty simple. I like the
idea, and imagine it could be (separately) applied to pages that contain
things that usually thinner text columns: indexes, functions, lists of
several things, ...

>From the source document, we may define a few arguments that would be
internally used and passed to psnup (or any similar solution): scale (or
"number of columns", if other than 2 is easy to do); use border?; ...

The pointed solution uses psnup, which is included in the psutils package.
This is less than 1 MiB (on Debian based distros), and should not be a
hard requirement to add to Sphinx, if decided to used it.

What do you think?
