The docs talk about connection based config, while ap_server_conf is really the main server config. The code should be improved to be based on c->baser_server config (with merging of RemoteIPProxyProtocol*), unless I'm missing something it seems (as of now) that the directives overwrite each other when used in vhost context (not only for name-based vhosts). So now (or post-backport) I think we should at least document the scope as being "server config" only, and follow up with "c->baser_server config" when possible (not a blocker for the first version).
