Although I appreciate your feedback, I'd rather not update this document with a
"rewrite" patch if the content doesn't change. Imo, the howto is understandable.

Generally, you need to take into account that guides are also translated.
Rewriting paragraphs with a different language tone results in translation
changes, but if the change itself does not constitute a content change but is
major enough to require a version bump (which I believe is due with this patch),
translation leads *will* kill you :)

I'm marking this as WONTFIX for this reason; if a translation lead finds that
the patch is very much due, please REOPEN.
