Actually, I'm well in support of this - for one, I'd like to make it  
such that we have space for full-body portraits in the help pages;  
which we certainly don't, now.  We also could use slightly more  
capable layout to make better use of space - an equivalent to the css  
"float", applied to our portraits,  would be a godsend.

Having the portrait, the descriptions, and, potentially, things we  
don't currently include, on one page, and having all the stats on  
another, would be grand.

Because I haven't been writing campaigns.

It's worth noting that for flavor reasons, Dave did not want the  
poacher/trapper line (which are effectively self-trained  
hillbillies), to be able to reasonably equal the elves (or trained  
human soldiers) in ranged combat (or any combat for that matter).   
I'd have opted for different, much more radical ways of achieving the  
same end (like bumping the entire elven race up a level), but this  
gives you the general gist of why this was done.
