So I totally approve of improving our index.rst files.  Without some
occasional maintenance, they become unorganized dumping grounds, and
Documentation/trace appears to be no exception.

This small change does not really help, though.  Could I please
encourage you to consider bringing some real order to this page?  As an
example, you could look at commit 270beb5b2aae from 6.13.

Thanks,

jon
