AFAICR this one is not by the same author, and although the point was 
about better clarity, it was not about formating but rather about 
restructuring text vs binary string function documentations. Then Tom 
reformatted the result.

Hmmm. ISTM that this is not really about "error message logic", it is 
about navigating to libpq functions when one is reference in the 
description of another to check what it does, which I had to do a lot 
while developing some performance testing code for a project.

Possibly, but as the "THIS WAS NOT DOCUMENTED BEFORE?" question seemed to 
still be in the release notes, I gathered that the information had not 
reached its destination, hence the possible repetition. But maybe the 
issue is that this answer is not satisfactory. Sorry for the 
inconvenience.
