   There's a high maintenance cost to writing Jekyll plugins to do this automatically. Doing this manually for each property is hugely error prone and a lot of tedious work. Either way, the end result would be a ton of static pages with http redirects that create more work for the user's browser, and I'm not sure there's much value to doing this beyond what we already get with: `https://accumulo.apache.org/docs/2.x/configuration/server-properties#table_scan_dispatcher`
   
   I don't think doing this is practical.
   
   *Maybe* this could be done with some sort of [Bootstrap UI element](https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.0/components/navs-tabs/#tabs), powered by JavaScript on the page, and using http anchors (like we use today) to a tab for a specific property, or something... but that's not a lot better than what we have today.
