Fair enough. I still think that we shouldn't be intentionally leaving
features undocumented, as it just leads to confusion down the road
(e.g. trying to figure out what some legacy code is doing, without
documentation).

I'm curious now, though: are there any other functions which we're
leaving intentionally undocumented? The only similar one I've run
across are the deprecated "-a" and "-A" arguments to the createuser
command. (There's another argument for documenting deprecated
features/arguments: it's easier to know what needs to be ripped out in
future releases).
