Removed the man in the middle warning here and put it in the quick start since it's connected to ssh config and very common.

Looks great to me.
One possible change if you wanted a link in the first page to the tunneling page.

Don't have an answer, but will post that on slack and see if anyone else knows of an alternative. |
