Anybody have any opinions here? 1. I believe it's been in that order since Day One. 2. How could it be otherwise? (Dunno.) 3. Users should have some understanding of the order, to make sense of `load-history'. Examining this history is one way of figuring out something that didn't go as expected (e.g. the wrong definition of something shadowing another). It's called `load-history'. Users will expect it to be similar to other `*-history' lists, unless its doc says something different. But it helps to directly say what its order is. It's true that the doc strings of the individual _minibuffer_ history vars don't say that they are "most recent first". But at least the Elisp manual (node `Minibuffer History') says it's true of all minibuffer history vars. The Emacs manual (node `Shell Ring') says that shell histories are like minibuffer histories. And node `Repetition' says that command history is also "most recent first".=20
