Hi,
Thanks for the review!
Attaching a patch with all document changes, removed the cross-reference to datatype-oid entirely. I've moved the &func-tid; entry in func.sgml to directly follow &func-textsearch;, which fits better alphabetically, and reworded the introductory paragraph to be much more concise, directly pointing to the table.
Regards,
Ayush

Meh. As long as tids themselves are split like they are, without any
variability of the amount of space dedicated for either component, I don't see
any advantage in that.
