I believe so. It would definitely be the easiest/fastest way to navigate. It
really depends what you are trying to do. I think if you are trying to build
a 'user guide' then the format you have is fine but it cannot (and does not
have to) be exhaustive. This is what I would read when I want to learn about
the dsl, to get an overview. I also think that a 'reference guide' which
contains an exhaustive list of everything is where I would go once I am done
with the 'user guide' (and this is what I do today... except I go to the
source code because there is no such guide :) and in my mind the 'reference
guide' should be easy to navigate. This is why I was thinking of a layout
equivalent to the grails documentation: whenever there is something I want
to do and I do not remember, this is where I go.
