Easy, easy now.


I'd rather add some more "hidden" links, but for each hidden
link (which are convenience only, to have larger are to click,
or to have closer area to click) I'd like to have clearly marked
link (marked as a link, i.e. using default link style; and with link text
denoting _kind_ of link) which leads to the same contents. 

For example on project list page I would made also project description
(and not only project name) clickable, leading tp project summary.
Making project name direct link wouldn't work for sites like kernel.org
with long (hierarchical) project names like
  linux/kernel/git/wim/linux-2.6-watchdog-experimental.git
And for other sites project name is/can be bit on the short side.

But we agreed (I guess) to disagree on the whole redundancy in user
interface issue (although I agree on the issue of reducing clutter).
BTW. we can reduce redundancy in the code without need for removing
"alternate entry points" in interface, I think.
