Re: wtf with the download?

Looks good to me, Gez. Nice work. Only thing: I used the table layout to
prevent wrapping which can be confusing/messy when space is confined.

I could probably have used divs instead of table cells, however the table's
structure was useful, guaranteed to work with whatever layout it's dropped
into, and makes sense both in terms of layout and design metaphor (I merely
left out the column headers for "download link" and "description"
respectively).

I like your version of the button code better, fwiw.
