[Haskell-cafe] hackage style

[Gershom B]

The problem with that particular README is that it is a text file. Nearly all the readme files these days are in markdown, which wraps. For text files, we do something very basic and render in a <pre> block, which does not wrap. 

To improve display of such readme files I see three options. A) use a smaller font only for pre blocks, so that more text fits, without rewrapping. B) allow text files to rewrap. C) force the content _only_ for such files to always be below a clear, and as such, below the entire properties table. I’m leaning towards A here at the moment. Thoughts?

The new hackage style has nice colors but severe problems w.r.t.  
readability. The right column with the package meta data causes the  
Readme text to be cut off. This make it almost impossible to read it. I  
attached a screenshot for illustration.
