The spacing is definitely implied, since there are actual spaces between the
groups in the example... I agree that we don't want to go overboard on
strict rules, but if we're going to have groups, then having spacing between
them makes sense to me.

I don't have really strong feelings about include ordering myself, though it
is nice to have some convention.  I certainly don't have strong enough
feelings to stop Nate from running his script if he wants.
