I realized that I wasn't consistent with the Xcode section in how I mentioned menu items, so I changed it to be consistent.

Sam, since you told me about this option, I figured I'd let you review the docs patch. :-)

> +<p>Current versions of Safari are very multiprocess, so it is easy to end up with a new WebProcess and have to reattach. If you enable the Internal Debug Menu as outlined above, you can have Safari display the Process ID of the WebProcess for each tab. Simply go to Debug &gt; Miscellaneous Flags and select Show Web Process IDs In Page Titles. You should now see something like <code>[WP 60737]</code> in the title of every web page you navigate to, and 60737 is the Process ID of the WebProcess backing that tab.</p>

I'm not a huge fan of "very multiprocess".  How about something like, "Current versions of Safari us a process for each tab".
