I will add this to my todo list for the manual, but do not expect this
to be fixed soon. I indeed don't think it is a very important aspect.

This is still on my list, but currently not at the top.
Main topics I have now for 2014.11 is
a. extension of kconfig-package to linux and barebox, and
b. implement an autobuilder instance
c. remove deprecated packages
d. during the stabilization month: further manual enhancements
Best regards,
Thomas
