I would agree that the breadcrumbs are a good idea, except that I'm
confused about it including the complete website navigation (instead of
just the docs).  IMO the list should be
Home → Data Types → Geometric → Types → Points
(where "Home" points to the top of 8.3 docs).

What happened to the contest for a website redesign anyway?
