I agree, and I'm not suggesting that we impose a learning method to the reader. 
The manual is fully linked and referenced and as such is already fully 
"spiralable".

I'm just concerned about that "advanced features" section that looks like a 
list of chapters that were just put there as an afterthought. For ex, the "sort 
text" item should really be after 22.7. There is no reason why it appears as an 
advanced feature. There is a "networking" section that could be created by just 
adding a section title etc.

I'm just talking about a little gardening in the manual.
