The synonyms are there to allow the glossary to find variants (and typos) used in the docs text. (For example, you would want "button" and "buttons" and "button's" to all link to the glossary entry for "button".)

Why they are now exposed to the user, I have no idea. But that's why they were in there in the first place.

(As a side note, topics that answer this question ["How to find out the highlight state of a checkbox or button" and "How to change the highlight state of a checkbox or button"] used to be in the docs, linked to related topics. So was a list of object properties for each object type [hard to generate now because some of that information has been removed from the dictionary]. The separation of the User Guide lets people have a PDF - a highly desired/demanded change - but it can make it harder to find specific things because the docs are not all in one place and can't be linked together or searched for globally as easily.)
