Thanks!
Applied, onto bugfix, after fixing minor formatting issues with the

[PATCH][DOC]: Add footnote on how to enable described functionality

[Nick Dokos]

I previously submitted a bug on what I thought was a code bug, but which
turned out to be (partly) a mistake on my part and was canceled:

   
https://list.orgmode.org/878r2b4dpy.fsf@localhost/T/#m48b7ea939117f241069fafbcf3726587837f3e70

But there is still a doc bug: since the default value of
`org-html-head-include-scripts' was changed to `nil' in Org 9.5, the
functionality described in the `Literal Examples' section of the manual
is no longer enabled by default. The attached patch adds a footnote to
describe how to enable that functionality. Thanks to user @JeanPierre on
Emacs SE for the original question and the push for the doc patch:

Subject: [PATCH] org-manual: Add footnote on how to enable described
 functionality.

* doc/manual.org (Literal Examples): The functionality of having
`ref:' links remote-highlighted in HTML is disabled by default (since
version 9.5). Add a footnote to explain how to enable it.

 In literal examples, Org interprets strings like =(ref:name)= as
 labels, and use them as targets for special hyperlinks like
-=[[(name)]]=---i.e., the reference name enclosed in single parenthesis.
-In HTML, hovering the mouse over such a link remote-highlights the

 You can also add a =-r= switch which /removes/ the labels from the
