Now the blue is definitely too bright.
I have considered keeping the soft blue for the links, but here are my two main reasons for changing to the more "pure" blue: - The current blue (#3465a4) does not pass the WCAG 1.0 against a white background. Based on experience, the new blue definitely increases readability, even though the current "soft blue" might be a *nicer* color. Since LilyPond's documentation is so extensive, I think the increase in readability is a plus. - With the current soft blue, it is difficult to distinguish *links* from *black text* if link underlining is turned off in the browser. Since the new blue is more contrasting with the black text in div#main, this would no longer be an issue. I want to use the softer blue for something else besides text, but I haven't yet decided where to put it, thus its absence from this patch.
