What does that mean? Scanned? How so? In what order are they scanned (besides starting with selected)? And how is the scanning used? What I would really like to know should have little or nothing to do with "scanning". It is what order the list is in. Details of how the function computes the list are not so important, but if you have to tell us that in order to specify the resulting order, so be it. Please update both the doc string and (elisp) `Buffers and Windows' to tell us what order the list is in.
