Doc Design and Conventions

[Chris Despopoulos <despopoulos_chriss -at- yahoo -dot- com>]

Sorry about the subject change...  I managed to turn it into the generic techwhirl subject.  Apologies...

Anyway, for the following:
-------------------
Most of the users of products I have documented in the past 
10 years or so are already past that point.  The question they 
most want answered is where to *find* the control they want.
-------------------

If that's true, why not just provide an index of controls?  Or to be less flip, is it time for to ship reference guides again?
