[BTW, this reminds me of your point on what is documented. I believe that the PEPs and descrintro count as the canonical documentation of these features. If they haven't been fully migrated into the Python documentation set yet, that's a secondary issue. The PEPs are the definition of what was agreed - people had time to comment on the PEPs at the time. And the descrintro document is the current draft of the user-level documentation. You can assume it will end up in the manuals. That's my view...]

This is my perspective as well. I'm not in a hurry to document relatively volatile feature that may change and (hopefully!) be available using a nicer syntax in the future.
