Just noticed I never followed up to this. Sphinx themes allow a bit more customisation than just "colours and fonts": they can also do layout things like changing up what sorts of sidebar information is shown, or indeed whether there's any kind of sidebar at all. Specific themes might expose some theme-specific config options which allow tweaking of how they appear. http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/theming.html has a few screenshots and gives more of an idea of what sort of tweaks the theming system allows. thanks -- PMM
