Just my 2 cents but I'd keep it ordered as is.

I expect that at some point, we'll condense the C++11 stuff to the same
amount of detail we provide for C++98 now. ;] And so on. So that the
baseline is at the top, and everything else are deltas.

This isn't new though, that's how we handled C++98: per-feature check boxes
until we were done and satisfied, then a simple statement.
