The doc in general could be much improved (any volunteers?), but here I think it is right. The link you quote defines what filters are, but what you post is not only a filter but a full selector line, consisting from a filter and the associated action. I agree that it would be useful to have more scenario-based cases which contain all the pieces put together (again, any volunteers?).
