Fix proposal subthread. Can we harness HN collective intelligence to vote up some good suggestions?

Instructions:

* Reply with your suggested fix to this comment. (That way we can vote equally between suggestions, instead of having them being scattered throughout the thread).

* First line is simple one-line summary, optionally followed by a blank line then some exposition.

Example:

----------

Simple fix: Seperate links into 2 color coded sections, TEST and ACTIVE

Put each set of links into seperate divs, with different background colors or striped backgrounds.

Simple fix: Seperate links into 2 color coded sections, TEST and ACTIVE

Put each set of links into seperate divs, with different background colors or striped backgrounds. As is, these different links are mixed up together making them accident prone. Undoubtedly a mini development boondoggle will result over this incident, in the meantime the above fix is easy and satisifies the real requirement.
