Thanks.  The text is OK, but please drop the cross-references (and the
@anchor which you created for them): you actually allude to stuff
described in the same node, and not very far before the referencing
text, so cross-references are inappropriate.  Instead, says "(see
above)", or even nothing at all, since the reader just have read about
ID lists, and there's an index entry for that if the reader forgot.
