I'd suggest the randomized order should be made available as soon as possible. It requires a positive action to invoke it, and its *purpose* is to break doctests. ;-) In other words, it is working properly when doctests break. On the other hand, padding the example numbers to change the current order (even if it is somewhat unpredictable) would seem to be too chaotic. So maybe two passes are in order. 1. Allow the randomization switch, advertise problem areas, get doctests cleaned up. 2. Test strict ordering, perhaps optionally for a while and clean up further problems with advertisements of problem areas. 3. Make strict ordering the default.
