Sean,
I looked at your bugzilla entry and am confused about what your patch
does - although I think I'm quite interested.
It always bothered me that the various sections of the documentation
appear strictly in the order that they were written. Given multiple
developers, I cannot guarantee that they all do it the same way. Does
your patch enforce the output ordering of those sections?
Also, how would someone use your new "merging" feature and what is its
point? Why would you have the same section command multiple times for a
single block? Or am I misunderstanding the point?
