It's a standard mediawiki feature.  We had some challenges getting
them to cooperate with our nicely indented subsections, but they've
certainly been there.

Yeah.  I'm starting to think we could do with adding a Help page for
the Todo, analogous to
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/CommitFest:Help.  The Help page would
explain how to take care of the various administrative tasks.  I'd
rather not clutter up the actual Todo page with that sort of thing; it
gets in the way of the people who are just looking to view the list.

I'll go write it up now.

Cheers,
BJ
