I think you got it right.

For PAM.D full file with specific info that this would work in Fedora only would be ok.
While ago (3-4 years maybe) I copied config from Redhat docs in Centos for SSSD and I found out month later that with config which I just copy/paste from those docs login with AD is working just fine, but pam.d would allow to login AD user with just simple [Enter]/blank password. Then I couldn't reproduce it on Fedora and Arch and somehow fixed it easy.

I think the menu item List of Design Pages would be good enough.
Also I'd rename menu title "Learn" to simple "Docs" or "Documentation", so it would be consistent with page url https://sssd.io/docs/introduction.html and left submenu title.

I read it as:

- Configuring automount with Kereberos authentication and more automount
information.
- Using trusted domains with non-qualified names (shortnames).
- How auto-discovery of trusted domains works.
- How auto-discovery of AD site works.

Correct me if I'm wrong. Also I added some more comments bellow.

This is problematic, since pam config has little but important
differences between distributions (I remember a critical security issue
when some distro copy&pasted Fedora configuration).

We can provide sample config for Fedora since that's what we use but we
would like to rely on community to provide samples for other distributions.

Would it help if "List of Design Pages" is highlighted in this case?

Thanks for the feedback.
