Whatever you find it's best, as far as it has edges.

This is the kind of tour we want to have.

That was the idea. Note that in the original plan the "Take the tour"
section had other pages apart from the tour thing (screenshots and
screencasts, or something like that. Since we are short of time and
resources the tour has gone up one level, and this is why now the 10
pages are appearing in the secondary bar, which wasn part of the plan.

Yes. Having a sidebar with 1-2 words for each page + tiny icon could
be neat and could help users going through the tour (you see how many
pages, you know where you are, you know what topic comes next...).
This could be compatible with next-back.

This sidebar is not a long navigation bar but a short table of contents.

As it is planned now each page moves 1 concept can be solved with i.e.
2 paragraphs + 1 big icon coming from the GNOME collection + 1
background probably out there as well. If we merge concepts we have
more complexity, more text, more ideas around, more confusion. A less
comfortable tour.
