Thanks for the clarification.

There is no outstanding bug about this; my question was about whether it
is necessary to file one for this doc string change, and it was prompted
by John's post in response to my previous todo-mode (non-doc) bug fix,
which I had committed to emacs-25 without a prior bug report (since I am
the todo-mode maintainer and had found the bug myself).
