Sorry, I should have noted that explicitly in my original email. The
vast majority of the patch is just moving the same text to a separate
file and chapter, and then fixing the resulting fallout. I also tweaked
a few areas in the text where appropriate ("This subsection" -> "This
section" and similar).

Oh, there is definitely room for more improvement on this front -- Josh
has some concrete ideas for changes he wants to make, I believe. I just
submitted this to get it into the tree so that subsequent patches will
be easier to review and less likely to drift.
