Could someone please clarify the How and the Who.
How would this OT section work? Obviously, one cannot expect the Seekers to know whether a question is "properly" topical. One wouldn't want the Seekers asking if they can ask, or some other meta noise either. Who would be categorizing the nodes, and by what criteria?
AFAIK, the questions that aren't of interest, shouldn't have been accepted in the first place. If this is the distinction, then you already have an OT section—the graveyard that is unapproved questions. I tend to check the Recently Active Threads, and wouldn't like the Puzzles^WQuestions section being arbitrarily split into two.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
