No. There are virtually no design changes being proposed that actually 
come with a patch, so nothing needs to be decided on.

What do you mean by "supported"? Officially supported, so that you can 
make a help desk call if it won't work? None.

Or do you mean that the browser should be able to use the site? All of 
them, plus any other browser you can think of, including Lynx and wget.

> The changes I have on my personal 'todo list' are:

Please submit a patch. I have no clue what a label of a form is.

> - - Make tables consistent width (see for example the table in the top
> of the "Browse packages" page and compare with the table when you
> actually select one of the classifiers).

Again, please submit a patch.

> - - Restyle the metadata display on package pages and move it up in the
> page.

Please submit a patch; this would probably need to get support of this list.

> - - Have downloads readily available on the right side of the screen (at
> least the latest release).

Not sure what that means; please submit a patch.

> - - Look sternly at the top right floating account information page.

Hmm. Whom do you want to look sternly?

The key here really is "I ... do". This sounds good.
