Manage circle overhaul, take 2

(see take 1 for more info)

Thanks for all the feedback (and squee ♥) on the first attempt at this. I haven't replied to comments (yet), but I did read them all. I've made some more changes, and would appreciate feedback.

Again, I am quite happy to give out invite codes for people who want to poke around. Otherwise, three pages, with variations:

ETA: The OpenID version didn't work. But feel free to create OpenID accounts to test with.

Known issues:
- (visual) there is no left border to the tables. nfi.
- (visual) it also might look better if the tables were centered? don't know the best way though
- (functional) it's a little redundant to have membership status for openID users
- (functional/accessibility) the bottom form still sucks (I haven't touched it at all)

Questions that I know I have:
- are the anchor links in the intro paragraph good or bad?
- someone brought up that having it in two-line format would get annoyingly long (which doesn't apply on the dreamhack, but would if you have 500 friends and 200 communities or whatever). does changing it to one-line make it too *wide*, especially for those of you with vision problems?
- if so, is that mainly for the people field, or is communities a problem too?
- are the tables and form elements still as accessible? (except for the add-user form. shh.)

Questions that I don't know I have:
- ???

+1 to Zvi's point about usernames PLUS account name.

As a large print user, the one line form is much easier to navigate.

Thanks for your work on this!
