Here's the tricky bit, we will have epubs per language. Should the
downloads page then have a dropdown of sorts?

So a deprecated section. That'd be a page with a glob table of
contents pointed at a 'deprecated' folder. However, say we deprecate
the fill tool for whatever reason. It is currently at
https://docs.krita.org/en/reference_manual/tools/fill.html, if we move
it to a deprecated section it'd become
https://docs.krita.org/en/deprecated/fill.html, meaning the link would
break. Might it then be better to have a page with reference links
towards the deprecated pages and that we don't move them physically in
the manual until we remove the page?

We could make a changelog section starting with 4.1, I would however
like some help with keeping that up to date though(and not just from
scott), previous attempts became out of date quite quickly, partially
because there were too many rules all of the sudden with screenshots
and the like. At the very least I would like boud and dmitry(and
whoever else pushes a lot of code) to harden the krita commit messages
rules so that commits that don't consist of whitespace fixes and
random cmake manhandling can be easily discerned.

Speaking of which, should we have other kinds of 'meta' pages, such as
license, contact info or list of contributors also added somewhere?
(The latter will require a script, but is possible).
