100% agreement.

> Perhaps you should regard mailing-list as another form of documentation.

If some discussion in the mailing list should find its way to the
manuals, I hope someone who is interested in improving the docs will
write it up and submit for inclusion; I promise to review and approve
such additions ASAP.  I could also offer help in adding Texinfo markup
to an otherwise pure-ASCII text, if the author doesn't feel like
writing Texinfo.
