It's a freeze now, but I guess it won't hurt if I push the actual
feature ACKed before the freeze [1] along with this docs change.

If not, it's not a big deal to let it wait for the next release though.

PS I've been semi-afk for last couple of weeks, hence the delay,
sorry about that.

We do not have the concept of 'soft freeze' when already discussed
features can go in. (although we might have bent the rule a few times
in the past)

Personally, I'd rather wait.

ACK and safe for the freeze.

I think it's rather demanded. I mean, otherwise we would have an
undocumented feature. Please push ASAP.

Ah, I have to discard this. I though the feature was already pushed and
you want to have just the documentation in. But I was wrong. Anyway, ACK
still stands, but it's a feature and as such is not safe for freeze.
Sorry for the noise.
