I don't necessarily agree that it is important enough to be in the
manual.

Two people asking doesn't mean it's a common customization, and it is
too early to make those decisions anyway, as the feature is barely out
there.  Decisions about additions to the manual should not be taken
too easily, because the manual is printed and sold by the FSF, and any
addition to it makes the production of the manual more expensive.
