We went away from commented wordy examples in the tutorial (a long time
ago, I believe for 1.4 or 1.6), because we felt they weren't clear
enough. Perhaps, in this case, the actual documentation of titling,
markup and header should first be revised so it shows more examples and
is clearer? The basic problem with complex examples, is that they're
difficult to read if you don't already know what they say.
