Yes, I think that property is important when developing in a loose
community.

Couldn't we just stick a warning SGML comment at the end of the list? ISTM 
that's no more likely to be missed/ignored than noticing that the list happens 
to be alphabetical.

Perhaps the best solution is to split the list into different areas; one for 
database stats, another for table stats, etc.
