I have applied the documentation change that introduced subsections,
which seems quite useful independently.  I have also committed the tests
that I proposed and will work through the failures.

As no new patch has been posted for the 2016-11 CF, I will close the
patch entry now.  Please submit an updated patch when you have the time,
keeping an eye on ongoing work to update hash indexes.
