I hope no-one minds I did the wiki-way and added a normal link to 
"Instructions" for now. There was a proposal for "Use it" earlier, I think 
these two can be merged into one top-level link as we're talking about 
end-user documentation. End-users are going to need instructions to know 
they want to install any plug-ins or extras anyway and to know how. The 
top-level "Download" page should probably include links to any plug-in 
page and extras page as well.

Anyone, please let me know if this is not a good idea. I see one argument 
for the title "Use it" is that it's short and an imperative. Then again, 
it doesn't give a lot of idea on what kind of content to expect there. 
What about "Learn", is that too boring? "Master it" or whatever the 
idiomatic English expression is?

In any case, you can now go to the "Instructions" page and add a link to 
your how-to or start a plug-in catalog etc.
