To me, it doesn't belong - it shouldn't be present, because I don't see it as especially useful. But I'll be glad to learn how it is. You don't say why it's useful. In particular, why is it more useful than an entry that could be added for some other library?

It's not obvious to me. >=20 > Not obvious to you doesn't mean you should file a bug report, or that > we should continue discussing this. I should file a bug report when I think it can help improve Emacs. And that's what I do. Please don't tell others when or whether they _should_ file bug reports. You can close any report that you don't think is helpful.
