But is that a result we want? It will for example break any bookmarks
that people might have for these documentation entries. It will also
pretty thoroughly break the cross-version navigation links in this
part of the docs.

Maybe the benefit is worth those costs, but I'm entirely not convinced
of that. I think we need to tread pretty lightly when rearranging
longstanding documentation-layout decisions.
