I wished the "column" layout extension would get more love.
Column layout with horizontal scrolling is somewhat unintuitive for newcomers, but It's really much more readable. And, after you actually get used to it, horizontal scrolling is so much better than reading through a PDF article with multiple-column layout.
I was actually trying to make use of the column layout to layout text, but it seems that the column layout is aimed to replace div layouts, not really at formatting text. I cannot set a column limit height, which makes it totally useless to format text. I wished I could have "pagination" (ie: break the column height to the browser height), so that pressing page-down would bring me to the next screen-full of two-column text. THAT would be good.
But having two-column reflow of text is totally useless for text. I don't want to go up/down the text like I have to do with PDFs.
