And the mandatory example. :)
A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.
Q: What is the most annoying thing in e-mail?

Yes, it is in the root of the source code repository. Since you sent
the mail to the correct addresses (alx@ and linux-man@), I assumed you
had read at least the head(1) of that file, since it's the only place I
know that documents that. I'm now curious: how did you know the
addresses to write to?
Cheers,
Alex
P.S.: Thanks, Bagas, for suggesting documenting in the Linux repo too
and CCing the relevant list.
