Possibly, the "swap without temp" technique is both simpler and faster and 
more reliable.  Using a separate "swap buffer" requires that character 
counts be used very carefully as text is moved to swap, moved in the main 
buffer, then moved from swap to main.

Reordering is not on my todo list.  I see other, more interesting things to do.

If someone wants to test reordering and different methods of implementing 
it, that's fine by me.
