Reading the current documentation (http://doc.powerdns.com/types.html) I
fail to see where this is "clearly stated".

This section is still there:
The fields have complicated and sometimes controversial meanings. The 'serial' 
field is special. If left at 0, the default, PDNS will perform an internal list 
of the domain to determine highest change_date field of all records within the 
zone, and use that as the zone serial number. This means that the serial number 
is always raised when changes are made to the zone, as long as the change_date 
field is being set.

Also, it appears that the serial is 0 by default.

How could this be anything but a bug? Saying it is changed because of
popular demand is just weird.
