Do people find the "Option Summary" in the GCC manual useful?

[Sandra Loosemore]

The "Option Summary" in the GCC documentation now runs 30+ pages in the 
printed manual, and would be even longer if I added all the options 
presently missing documentation.  Besides its length, there are no 
direct links from the options it names, to their documentation -- only 
to the containing section, many of which are also dozens of pages long. 
(The alphabetical option index at the end of the manual does link 
directly to the @opindex tag location in the detailed documentation.) 
Nowadays hardly anybody uses a paper manual and can rely on the search 
feature in their browser or PDF viewer to find what they're looking for 
instead, so perhaps the lack of direct links isn't a fatal flaw, but 
since the whole document is searchable, is the "Option Summary" still 
helpful to point you in the right direction?  Do you find it useful?

For some context: when I'm writing I like to have a clear purpose in 
mind for each section of the document.  I'm having a hard time figuring 
out what the purpose of the "Option Summary" is.  :-S  Maybe it made 
sense 30+ years ago when GCC had many fewer options and most people 
relied on a paper manual, but what about now?
