misc doc fixes for REL_12_STABLE

Hi,

Please consider a patch that fixes some trivial issues in new doc 
fragments (a couple of typos/ambiguities and some tags that affect 
translation).

Thanks for the patch.  I have one comment.

Okay, yes that could be a bit confusing for the reader.  Nit: I would
replace "master" with "primary" while we are in the area.  What do you
think?

But that's the only comment I have, the rest looks good!

Hi Michael,

Changing master to primary was my first inclination, but I saw that we 
have 8 masters and 4 primaries here. So maybe we should have another 
consistency patch (that probably goes beyond this chapter). I can 
prepare one if you like.

P.S. I'm not particularly happy about this paragraph either, but that's 
as far as I could get without twisting the original ideas.

I have been looking at your patch again, and committed your
improvements as they were originally presented as my comment can apply
to much more places.  Thanks!
