It can go both ways, though.  Grouping lower-level things together
has values, too ;-).

If foo and foo-lowleve needs to be grouped and read together to be
understood, it is a sign that the conceptual separation between the
higher- and lower-level things is not done cleanly enough.

Having said that, I do not care too deeply either way, as long as
it makes it easier to locate what we need to in the end result.

Thanks.
