The *Available variables* lists, like the one at
http://drupal.org/node/11816 , are difficult to scan visually. The
variable names are interspersed with wrapped multi-line definitions and
are not set out with formatting.


I'd suggest converting the bulleted lists to definition lists and
styling the variable names in bold.


I'm attaching replacement markup for the list in
http://drupal.org/node/11816 , additional CSS, and an HTML file that
should demonstrate the finished presentation I'm suggesting.
