 In-admin help is cool. But! There's so much of it! All that scrolling and
 a mountain of long-line-length rows that are hard to read (let alone scan)
 on complex screens makes it much less effective than it should be. Let's
 redesign the inside of the help layers. Break each screen's help content
 into smaller bits (Overview, Disploy, Actions, whatever is applicable per
 screen) and have those labels on left, readable line-length content in the
 middle, and the more info links on the right. See attached sketch.

 Koop will set it up if no one beats him to it, but it would be awesome if
 someone beat him to it, because he's working on the new user and new
 feature bits. If someone makes the structure today, we can have afternoon
 hackathon people help make patches to do the content splitting up parts
 this afternoon.
