I think explaining what blacklisting means, its implications and how to
clear it is an excellent idea, but it seems there is quite a lot to say,
and the layer index itself might not be the best place to show it all. So
what about adding all this to the documentation, then link to it from the
layer index? The recipe details page would then look like the attached
image. 

Alex, sorry for nitpicking: using the .label-inverse class means that the
label in the h1 of the recipe details page also hovers. Only labels with a
tooltip should hover, so maybe we should go back to the extra class, or
just qualify the hover styles so that they only apply to .label-inverse
inside tables (td > .label-inverse:hover). Apologies: I should have picked
this up before you submitted the patch.

Cheers

Belén
