I'd rather keep them at the end, to somewhat discourage their use.

Quoted for emphasis -- my complaints weren't directed at you, Patrick. Your patch was a good start; I'd be overjoyed if everybody interested in the docs sent a patch of that quality. It wasn't perfect, but it's a great place to start from. It was Carl's responsibility (and anybody else who commits patches) to check that it fulfilled all the doc standards; he was the only person at fault here. But he took responsibility and quickly fixed the problems, so there's no worry.
