Bug description:  setcookie and the null value for the value argument

When using the setcookie function, I noted that setting the value to NULL
had the following result:

The expire time argument was completely ignored, and automatically set to
one year and one second ago. Also the value sent to the browser for this
cookie had changed to 'deleted'.

I browsed the PHP source code, and saw my suspicions confirmed, this is
the correct behaviour.
Could this be included in the documentation? I really like the following
syntax:

setcookie('name', null, null, '/');
