OK, sure.  I'll track everybody's suggestions an post a revised ordering 
tommorrow or wednesday.

One of my objectives was to avoid having a "Miscellaneous" section, as I find 
such sections tend to grow with time.   I couldn't avoid the Query 
Tuning/Other section, though, or for that matter Client Connection/Other; the 
options named definitely belong in that category, but don't have an 
appropriate sub-category that I can think of. 

Anybody see anything else that should be moved?
