Good catch.
I agree it should be in the order selection, document and then session.
I don't remember when these buttons were added. In case I did so, I
probably just didn' think about and just added them.
In case of it was Nick, maybe he had a reason.

If there was no reason, I think we should change it as suggested by
Daniel.
