   Indeed, something sounds not quite right about that or not the behavior we 
would ultimately want here.
   
   As for what to recommend in the developer docs I like to approach it from 
the questions of: Who is our audience there? What do they need to accomplish 
with these docs? What skills are they coming in with? (there almost certainly 
are multiple answers here, so we'll likely need to thread that needle between 
the different groups) Sometimes I find that writing out what the docs are (or 
what are the commands that I would run to do this task and what do those look 
like? Here those _are_ the docs cause we're not writing a new function here, 
but the principle is the same) helps figure out if the UX feels right or if 
something is missing there
