Follow-up Comment #9:

I went ahead and pushed an update to the docstring here:
https://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/2e8b8d38431c

I'm still hesitant to add new format strings to somewhere in the middle of the
existing list. At the moment, it's unclear to me if that could break existing
code.

I'm marking this documentation change as ready for test because imho this is
all we need for the original issue.
Feel free to set different flags if you disagree.
