Okay, well, let me just say that I'm a weblocks novice, and my 
bootstrap/jquery experience is limited to having read the bootstrap website 
and having come to the conclusion that the designers working on bootstrap 
have much better visual design sense than I do. I was fooling around with 
your tree yesterday, and I noticed that (wop:make-app ...) produced a 
standard weblocks application with prototype includes. Do you have to make 
manual changes to the defwebapp form to override the defaults? I realise 
that by going the way of bootstrap/jquery I now have two moving pieces in 
my stack which obviously makes it a little more challenging... but I've 
been treating html as a textual presentation format since 1995, and have no 
personal opinnion of the graphical quality of the webified common lisp 
hyperspec, so it's probably a pill I should swallow. :)
