I think we can keep it down to one sentence if we follow the 'describe
what it affects' guidance for docstrings, which allows dropping the
'if non-nil' bit. So something like:

"Whether summary filtering commands apply to an existing summary.
If nil, a new filtered summary is created, if non-nil, subsequent
filtering commands apply to an existing filtered summary.  This allows
the user to apply one filter after the other and keep narrowing the
results."

(the name of the option may need to change)
