I don't think this is a good idea, since someone will come later
complaining that they want the minor mode first...
The *Help* buffer generated by "C-h b" has the outline-minor-mode
turned on, so navigation is easy (e.g., "C-c @ C-n" and "C-c @ C-p" to
move between sections). And maybe you want to customize
describe-bindings-outline-rules to the nil value, which will make the
sections hidden, with only the section headings visible: then you can
easily unhide only the section you are interested in. I think
outline-minor-mode all but eliminates the need to decide which part is
first and which follows it.
