Let's say I have a subtree, of review materials, for example.  I would like
to randomize the order of the elements.  I would like to have the option to
randomize the subtree in some different ways:

    1.  sort the members of one subtree that is a list, randomly.
    2.  sort all the headlines, randomly.
    3.  sort the subtrees randomly, and the lists within each sub-subtree
also randomly, ad nauseum.

I have written a sort routine in elisp.  It's been many long years ago, but
I remember that the basis support for writing sorts is pretty general.

Suppose I had time to do this.  What would I need to look at?

Of course, my need is today, to sort review materials for my students in
random order.
