What does that mean?

Will the level 2 pages appear as level 1 links on a level 1 page, i.e.
would the navigation bar on the "About page" simply look like this:

    For Beginners
    For Developers
    For Business

with the look of the first level links (i.e. brown background, block
border)?

IMHO this is more confusing that at least keeping the level 1 page
that is in the path in the navigation bar. The siblings of the level 1
page could be hidden though:

      For Beginners
      For Developers
      For Business

OK! ;)

We already have three levels: The homepage is level 0, "About" is
level 1 and "About">"For Beginners" is level 2.

Indenting a level 3 page by 10 pixels shouldn't make the navigation
too wide.

So "Home">"Documentation">"Library Reference" )or
"Home">"Developers">"PEPs") is only one page and doesn't have any
subpages?
