I still wasn't sure from the section you are quoting that it was
acceptable. Are you saying that the idea of ordering the description
in alphabetical order is not copyrightable, and since there is only
one way to change the documentation to implement that idea, it is
obvious, and thus not copyrightable? Robert Dewar thinks that we should
require a proper assignment to accept this change...
