Background images don't always load as one might wish, though. The
styling-disabled is a valid concern, but despite conventional mythology,
styling is necessary nowadays and anyone who disables it except for testing
is a moron. As for semantics - phffft! Very few pages have correct
semantics, anyway, and a sequential list of links in a "layer" will
certainly not mess them up if they are correct.
