Eliot,

I never suggested replacing linear docs with visual docs. They are not 
exclusive. My suggestion was to start including short screencasts in 
Documentation/ page (even if it is a link to the vimeo page). Screencasts take 
much less effort to produce and distribute these days than linear docs so the 
trend is only likely to accelerate in the coming years.
