As we won't get quicklinks for the launch, unfortunately we need to keep and therefore beautify (a bit at least) our 2nd breadcrumb line that looks ugly right now (see attachment).

We need to beautify one of those, then update the different macros to the new design (Template:xyz), then regenerate all our pages.

I thought we weren't using these.

We use them everywhere. And we can't stop as long as we don't have another navigation means. The MDN is unfortunately unusable without them.

Note: I hate them, I want to see them gone, but for this we need an alternative way of navigation for that.

Hmmm.  I don't want them to look like our page breadcrumbs because that would be confusing.  Sean?

These are also styled with CustomCSS, so that's where these updates will need to go.

Yeah, I'm thinking we'll do something to use some Font Awesome icons to help make these look a little "snazzier."

We will use quick links instead.
