Thanks, Mike.  I probably would never have
figured out all of that.

Kinda seems odd that we'd have created a
variable for something that someone _might_
want to do (but probably never has done).

Usually, when someone proposes something
like that it gets rejected as fulfilling
only a hypothetical need.

Anyway, if the variable will stay then it
would be great if the doc could be fixed
a bit, based on some of what you said here.
