How did you come up with the initial list of terms ?

Here's some ideas; I'm *not* suggesting to include all of everything, but
hopefully start with a coherent, self-contained list.

grep -roh '<firstterm>[^<]*' doc/src/ |sed 's/.*/\L&/' |sort |uniq -c |sort -nr |less

Maybe also:
object identifier
operator classes
operator family
visibility map
