Well, you are not responsible for the GDB documentation; I am.
If we are going to allow committing undocumented code, I would ask to
install some procedures to make sure it gets documented eventually.
For now, I don't have any practical suggestion for such procedures,
and I cannot be responsible for a job that other maintainers and
contributors are preventing me to do well. Please be fair and
understand where I'm coming from.

sources.
