Note that this feature was already documented in the existing

writing these docs that nobody actually reads.
And it's a sad that project leaders immediatly assume users are just
unwilling to read the docs, rather than wondering if the docs need
improvement.
We know they do, and we are. There's no wondering involved ;-)
This bears some repeating. We are continuously investing time and energy
into updating the docs. But if you don't provide feedback like "this
part helped" or "this part is unclear" then we can only assume you're
not reading any of it. If you don't tell us the commands you used, and
you don't tell us what diagnostic output was produced, we can only
assume that you don't know how to ask for help, and that you don't know
how to use the software, and that you've ignored all of the
documentation that tells you how to do all these things.
Just saying "this didn't work for me" doesn't tell anybody anything useful.
When you communicate effectively with us, you'll get better information
back.
I'd love to also see, "It would be really helpful if x, y and x was
covered".
Much like our test suite, complete coverage is the aim.
