Though perhaps the process will encourage some culling of options that really don't make sense anymore.Would we want to remove useless options outright, or deprecate them for a while with removal to happen at some future time, or just deprecate them and/or document that they are not useful?
Sounds good. I think just starting with the list & creating the buckets with the list. Then post here and we'll iterate and try to nail that down before you start moving everything in the .texi file.I guess it can't be any worse than it is now, though, where the whole 60 pages is essentially a "misc bucket". I'll see if I can put together a plan for splitting things up.... if there are too many leftovers maybe others can help by suggesting different/additional categories.
