I don't think it's that hard to be clear; see proposed wording below.
The other loose end is that I don't think we can take away the opclass
entries for the old spellings, unless we're willing to visibly break
people's queries by removing those operator names altogether. That
doesn't seem like it'll fly when we haven't even deprecated the old
names yet. So for now, we have to support both names in the opclasses.
I extended the patch to do that.
This version seems committable to me --- any thoughts?
The wording seems no problem to me. I looked into a patch and changes also seem sensible but I can not apply this patch because of really many rejects. Which commit should I use to apply it onto?
