yes. ;-)

Thanks for the review.
BTW: Although I also reordered the fields in the description
in usage() and in the description of each field in coreutils.texi,
there's no explicit documentation about the default order yet.
Should I squash in something like this?
diff --git a/doc/coreutils.texi b/doc/coreutils.texi
index 53f7b58..cc9df7d 100644
--- a/doc/coreutils.texi
+++ b/doc/coreutils.texi

@itemx @w{@kbd{--output}[=@var{field_list}]}
@opindex --output
Use the output format defined by @var{field_list}, or print all fields if
-@var{field_list} is omitted.
+@var{field_list} is omitted. In the latter case, the order of the columns
+conforms to the order of the field descriptions below.
The use of the @option{--output} together with each of the options @option{-i},
@option{-P}, and @option{-T} is mutually exclusive.
Have a nice day,
