The documentation in the _manuals_ doesn't have to happen immediately= , although it should be our goal to make that happen more frequently than it happens today: after all, those who use the development Emacs should also ideally have the manuals to go with that. But NEWS shoul= d have some minimal documentation of the new feature _immediately_, i.e. as part of the last commit of the feature. Otherwise, users wil= l have no idea what is being added and how to use it, and frequently even not that it was in fact added. Thanks in advance.
