general.texi is a manual.  It happens to be the first manual that
people should read, but IMO it's still a manual.  My opinion is
that we should still produce one large page for this, but I'm not
too concerned either way.

Yes -- possibly the confusion arose from "general.html", by which
I meant "the one large file for the manual produced by
general.texi", rather than "the one large file that is generally
everything".  :)

Sounds fine to me.  I suggest that we just go with this and add
the @rgeneral links.  If somebody wants to hack stuff to get
navbars in the large page at a later date, they can do that.
