Not necessarily. It works like a stack.

The latter. This only implements moving items within the same
sequence.

Hopefully what I said above made it clearer. I guess it's clear that I
had trouble with making it clear and keeping the help-echo short at the
same time, so I'll be glad if someone can improve the wording, or
suggest improvements.

I'll fix that.
Thanks.
