Thanks :-)
For the other readers: this is a documentation-only update, intending to
emphasize that "pull-filter" is not a secure solution (in the sense of
"a malicious server can not find ways around it") to filter options sent
by a, well, untrusted server. "Connecting to a server you do not fully
trust" is not unheard-of - consulting customers passing on a VPN config
to access to-be-consulted systems, but you do not want to send them any
other traffic. Usually those are not actively malicious, though...
Your patch has been applied to the master and release/2.6 branch.
