When searching for command, the listing of the page could be better. For lookup, Please organize the BTS server command listing alphabetically: www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
While I'll definetly entertain suggestions for improving the order and the documentation; alphabetical is not an improvement, because related options are no longer listed together. [If you're searching for a specific option, almost all webservers have searching on a single page available.] Don Armstrong

[If you're searching for a | specific option, almost all webservers have searching on a single page | available.] The alphabetical would be much better. The current page does not follow any direct logical order, although some grouping can be sensed. E.g. there is no single order one would expect commands to be ordered. Person A might expect "close" to be next to "quit .. stop", Person B might wonder why the page starts with "reassign" command and Person C why "found" is near the top when it is seldomly used. It's difficult to scan forward and backward, when one cannot know in which direction to search next time. The "search" button in any other browser that Firefox is not that handy at all. An alphabetical listing would be straight forward like used in the Unix manual pages. If this is not possible, then the page could contain headings to "group" commands and their tasks. Jari
tag 376291 wontfix thanks Ordering them alphabetically makes even less sense than someone's guess at a useful order by grouping similar commands together. Suggestions and/or patches with an improvement in order requested; changing the order to alphabetical isn't an improvement, so marking this wontfix. [Even most manuals try to group related actions toghether; for the most part that page attempts to.] Don Armstrong
You already reported this against debbugs as #376291, and I marked it wontfix with an explanation. All of the commands are listed in that table, and are helpfully linked to with anchor tags. The commands are (as I explained in #376291) grouped by their relatedness. Your change in ordering would, for example, move notfound to be next to notfixed and merge, instead of being next to found, it's obvious mate. [merge would be quite a bit away from forcemerge, and an enternity would separate it and clone.] I don't object to changes in ordering which would improve it, but alphabetical ordering is not an improvement.
