contents, showing only top-level document titles for better readability.

If you made this the first patch, you would only need to modify one place.

This is a patch series. If the end result is going to be maxdepth 1,
you shouldn't add a bunch of maxdepth 2 and then in the next patch make
them all maxdepth 1 as the only change.

Just change the one maxdepth 1 first, and then you can update the code
with the new maxdepth of 1.
