Maybe just add a line break every 4 elements or so?

One thing I find even more weird about that list is that when features
are suppressed because they're all identical in the shown versions, the
section titles remain, with the list of versions.  That's very odd.
Scroll down to "Network" to see what I mean.

I agree with Magnus...  What's the use in having ancient versions of PG
listed?  Surely we don't want to encourage people to use EOL versions.

Thanks!
