Thanks.  Allow me a few comments.

We don't put such comments into the code, the log entry and AUTHORS
serve this purpose.

The first line of a doc string should not be wider than 67 characters,
certainly not more than 78, and it should still be a complete sentence
that summarizes what the function does.

> + Do nothing when outside of an environment; this does not handle nested environments."

Other lines should also be broken at character 70.

I think these additions should be also reflected in NEWS.
