This is a very good point. I've wanted picogui to have good
documentation for quite a while now- I even started to plan out a
'picogui book' that would cover everything in one place. But, that was
before we decided to retire the current design as soon as possible and
start on a new one.

I guess a higher-level issue here is, how fast should we be moving from
pg1 to pg2? 

pg1 could still use a lot of documentation, debugging,
refactoring, and features. However, pg2 will end up scrapping most of
the existing code.

(If you want to see lalo and my current thoughts about this, it's on the
wiki... but contributions are welcome :)
