Hmm, that reads strangely to me. s/that/which/.

I am not 100% sure what you are suggesting a replacement of here. I
think I may reword this as:
  For additional standard extensions, the first letter following the 'Z'
  conventionally indicates the most closely related alphabetical
  extension category. If multiple 'Z' extensions are named, they will
  be ordered first by category, in canonical order as listed above, then
  alphabetically within a category.

Uh, sure? I'm not sure what impact that has on the output, but I can
switch to a pre-formatted block.

Thanks,
