I think this makes sense. I wondered to what degree the v2 protocol doc may say "...and you can use capabilities from protocol-capabilities.txt here". But it doesn't. It newly lists the capabilities, which makes this paragraph the right thing to say. It does mean that if we teach v1 a new capability, we'll have to document it in both places. But moving forward, we'd hopefully not be doing that too often (I haven't seen talk of flipping the v2 switch yet by default, but obviously that's where we want to end up). I probably would have put this in its own patch, but barring that we should probably at least mention in the commit message what this paragraph is doing here. -Peff
