I'd approve probably any patch that makes 
etags-xref-find-definitions-tag-order into a defcustom, or even creates 
a new option governing it.

But maybe it's not necessary after all? I think we've addressed 
Winston's needs in different ways by now.

Maybe the manual should advertise the necessity to call etags with 
--regexp in certain cases more prominently instead.
