Feedback request: Documenting IoC-enabled components

Jonathan and James (et al.),

I've been working on how to use the component API design mock-ups 
http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Infusion+documentation+redesign+%28April+2011%29#Infusiondocumentationredesign%28April2011%29-API%3AComponent

as the basis for documenting a component that is actually made up of several "configurable subcomponents."

My first stab at this is on the wiki, at
    http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Fat+Panel+UI+Options+API+%28in+development%29

Note that the bulk of the information is on the "uiOptions" subcomponent's page, since that's where the bulk of the component is. We would ultimately have a page for "Full with preview" and "Full without preview" which would each link to the same "uiOptions" sub-page as well as to any particular subcomponents. I haven't filled in most of the actual information – this is mostly an exploration of the organization and navigation of the information: the breakdown into separate pages, the links between them, etc.

I'd love to have some feedback on this approach and any suggestions for improvement.
