The header that contains the eclipse links and logos and so on is
really busted.  The original source was using CSS with absolute
positioning to try and position the elements.  I brought it over
to Gerrit, but screwed something up.  In particular we don't know
how tall in pixels the menu bar area is going to be.

Uh, yea.  Its not dynamic, but its a computed id during the compile
of Gerrit Code Review from source to JavaScript/CSS.  The name isn't
stable and is likely to change in a future build.  The GWT compiler
generates these names so they are unique and won't have a collision
in the global CSS namespace for the page.  They are also shorter
than the original source names, making for a more compact CSS script.

To really fix the header stuff, I think we need to rewrite the
entire header HTML.  Its there because the Foundation strongly
encouraged us to include it.  But I didn't want to spend several
hours trying to decipher the complex CSS they use and fix it to
display in this context.
