It looks good! Maybe because I'm getting use to it ;)

More seriously, it always looked good. It doesn't look 'unsophisticated'
(what I called previously 'childish') at all over multiple pages. The
scheme wizards are well represented.

And it definitely makes Guile more welcoming.

I happy that everybody agree that this is the way forward for Guile 
community. I'm also happy to see more people interested in accessibility
and more people acknowledging "worse is better/more accessible".


Thanks everybody!
