The parts are put together with NOLEFT_TOP being the section before the
actual content, UI_CONTENT is the content and NOLEFT_BOTTOM going
after. The page content section is actually defined in the page_edit.html
admin file. It's a little confusing, but that's the way it is works at
the moment. I am glad to hear about this being improved for the next version.

haven't grasped yet how these parts
(NOLEFT_TOP, UI_CONTENT, NOLEFT_BOTTOM) are put together, and how
do
you mark the place where the actual page content will be placed. -
could
you put me in the right direction once more please? :)
