I'm not sure. I agree, that the internal maps are pretty unknown to a lot of 
people, but also I think, the simple mapping old -> new is the most common 
use case (at least for starters). Together with the random maps and given 
that mod_rewrite was initially used for load balancing, text maps may have 
been the first maps implemented (and therefore have been described first). 
But I'd need to check that.

No, no. I don't actually care about the order here ;-)
