I'm okay with re-ordering for readability and maintainability, and the
order you describe seems okay.  I think that we'll need more changes
for readability, but there's no reason to let the perfect be the enemy
of the good here.  One request:

The patches that move text should do literally nothing other than move
text. They should not exit, reformat, delete, renumber, or anything.
That should happen in other patches.

Rationale: It is much more difficult to review patches that move and
edit than patches which only move things.
