IIRC there are also things like forcing part start on the odd page etc.

Whatever - surely one can start from any of those classes and tune
it. The main problem is what is the expected result ;-)

Some things to consider:

(purely look&feel)

- more aestethic title page (ideas welcome, things like underlined
  title in big letters on the lower part of the page come to min)

- more aestethic chapter and part titles

- some font tuning (there are a few fonts which look better than
  computer modern)

- more aestethic footers

(content)

- information ordering and chapter/titles review (see the table of contents,
  there is chapter lxml containing section lxml, What's new in lxml 2.0 is in
  first part while detailed change history on the end, some discussion about
  ElementTree compatibility i between performance and FAQ and before the
  first tutorial etc etc)

- (?) index (of crucial terms)
