I've attached a delta (0002) against your patch, wherein I've kept
most of the structuring changes you've proposed, but made changes such
as:

* use tags consistently
* use language matching the rest of func.sgml, IMO
* avoid repetition (eg. context_item described both above and below the table)
* correcting some factual discrepancies (eg. json_value never returns json null)
* avoid forward references
* capitalize function names, SQL keywords in examples as requested in
a previous review [1]

Maybe we could still polish this some more.
