If there's unhappiness with the current structure of the manual (which
is indeed a bit too shallow), I can think about grouping the material
differently, to make it deeper and with less top-level chapters.

However, a single chapter named "Advanced Features" is hardly any help
in this direction, since its name doesn't say anything about what's
in it, and so cannot help in locating material.

I agree wholeheartedly that having more tutorial-level information
would be great.  Perhaps we should at least consider requesting a
couple of non-trivial examples with each command whose documentation
is submitted for approval.
