Good catch. Now done in this patch series. I've also added a patch 
(0002) to improve the wording of the existing documentation, and 
hopefully finished up everything for fixing the original bug.

For patch 0002, I debated changing the various function names to 
'get-display-specification' and 'add-display-specification', but I left 
them as-is for now. If you think we should change them so the wording is 
more consistent, let me know (of course, I'd add aliases from the old 
names to the new ones too).
