After working with the Zope help System a bit, I got very annoyed that
there was no consistent ordering to the tree. For example, you could
repeatedly click the contents tab link, and watch it reorganize itsself.
Attached is a patch that sorts everything by id. 

Why id? Because then I can make my help menu item id's a numeric
sequence, and put the topics in a specific order.
Example:
  Membership
	Overview
	Membership Conventions
	
Rather than the order being random.

Attached is the patch. patch from the Zope root directory.
Once applied, you *don't* need to restart zope to see the change.
