Yes, I think so.

In the file-name-concat bit in the manual? I'm not sure that would be
all that informative for the readers, really... (But it would explain
things to people who did do a concat/file-name-as-directory thing before
this function existed, so perhaps mentioning this in NEWS would make
sense.)

I'm not sure why we'd mention anything about leading slashes here at
all? Or slashes in the middle of components, for that matter:
(file-name-concat "/tmp/" "//foo////bar")
=> "/tmp///foo////bar"
