Thanks.
Even though there are one or two dozen folks more qualified than me when
it comes to reviewing this patch, I installed it (mainline only), because
I believe the documentation will be better after the patch than before it.
And yes, patches (especially documentation patches) certainly shouldn't
fall through the cracks like yours have. We have to ponder on how to
prevent something like this happening (too often)!
