That's what I see we do now: the major mode is first, followed by the
minor modes.  There's a part with links to minor modes, in case the
user knows which minor mode she wants to read about.

Please show an example of that, because this is definitely specific to
the major mode.  E.g., I don't see this for *scratch*.

It only takes a line or two; omitting that would be losing
information, IMO.
