I'm very grateful for your work (and I should eventually have a closer
look whether some of the documentation can be ported to the IR)!
However, you probably did a systematic approach to the functions as
needed for the guide – this is something I don't suggest here.
Instead, I plead that interested users who stumble upon insufficient
documentation should be encouraged to provide patches *for whatever
they are interested in*.  No need for being thorough; even the
smallest breadcrumbs are potentially useful for all users.
