They should already be omitted, or strongly deprecated, in the manuals.
For example, the Variable Definitions node in the Lisp manual says
There is no need to start [the docstring] with a `*', because
`defcustom' automatically marks `option' as a "user option"
If you find a spot in the manual that still follows the old convention,
please let us know.

Yes.
