For the record, I like at least some of Stephen's "stiff verbosity". This reads 
really well:

>     Human programmers generally don't think about two patch sets that
>     implement different features as being ordered.  Well, neither does
>     Darcs.  Darcs will pull a set of patches that may implement
>     several features, and automatically reorder them so that as many
>     as possible apply without conflict.  You don't have to worry about
>     it until a conflict arises, and Darcs can do this at least as well
>     as you can, and faster.  Experience shows that when a conflict
>     does arise, it is normally due to features that have genuinely
>     conflicting requirements in the implementation, that some human
>     must resolve.  This is exactly what you want.

Thanks Daniel for working on docs and stimulating the discussion.
