+Appendix
+========
+
+Many of the recipes are based on questions and answers provided on the
gremlin-users mailing list. This section
+contains a number of traversals from the mailing list that do not easily
fit any particular pattern (i.e. a recipe),
+but are nonetheless interesting and thus remain good tools for learning
Gremlin.

I'm wondering if some of these traversals may "look better" with `match()`.
@dkuppitz ?
