Note that if this isn't well documented on-line, the docs team will
probably be held to the same standard as UI and a11y- if it's not
documented by the relevant team, bugs filed against that problem by the
relevant team will not be considered showstoppers until the docs are
fixed. We can't expect people to get the information from thin air- it's
got to be on the web, or we can't really expect them to fix it. Seth has
set a high bar with HIG 1.0- for once ;) everyone else has to follow his
lead :)
