Not really. I selected stuff like this for the Learning Manual based on the questions appearing on the -user list around 3-4 years ago. Placement of objects used to be a common question then. So why not in the Notation Reference? Because we don't document overrides in general - that's what the Internal Reference is for. And we don't use the NR to explain things - that's done in the LM.
