The main issue is getting the content up to date, of course; many seem to
be out of date to one degree or another.  Standardizing the
structure/style at the same time is just a suggestion.

I also forgot to mention that it would be good to update cluster.rng
descriptions at the same time.  We want cluster.rng descriptions to be
only 1-2 line fragments, followed by a man page reference where more
details can be found.  (This is so the docs people can generate a
cluster.conf reference table.)

These are the man pages I haven't looked at, so I can't say what state
they're in,
