It is great to hear some comments from you ;) First, adding this style
sheet customization technically only adds an option for manual writers,
to use this format, so it won't change the current PDF rendering in any
way.

Can you please explain, why do you think "it is much better to write
the "see also" notes as before"? I would be glad to hear some opinions.

Can you show us any language where not the ["See also" + list] form is
used, with "See also" replaced by the translated version? We have example,
table and other titles autogenerated this way for years now, and noone
complained about them...

Showing see also parts in a different notation makes them easily
distinguisable from manual text. Our Windows manual user survey
pointed out, that see also is one of the very best used parts of
the manual, so as for useability, we should mark them clearly
distinguisable from normal text IMHO.
