For reference, this is the table:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/19/functions-info.html#FUNCTIONS-GET-OBJECT-DDL

> 1. Arrange table 9.96 alphabetically.

I'm working on a patch that touches this table and noticed the arbitrary order,
so +1 for reordering.

> 2. Add helpful links back to the commands that these functions are generating.

Makes sense to me; on the same page I see we don't always back-link items
including SQL commands, but IMO links are one of the features of this
new-fangled
hypertext thing.

It would certainly worth getting the changes in, also as a template for future
patches which touch the table. It might be worth combining the two patches.
There doesn't seem to be a commitfest entry.
