Is documenting such implementation details really a good idea? Apart from preventing further evolutions/improvements/fixes (like the recent hash randomization), I don't see any benefit in exposing such details. FWIW, I clearly remember Josh Bloch warning against this type of documentation in one of its presentations (and in his excellent "Effective Java").
Cheers,
