It somehow feels strange that the option name is points-at and all
the explanation (like the above and also in the doc) talks about
pointing to an object.  Not limited to this patch but the previous
one had the same, I think.

This shows that we would want to add a "annotated doubly" tag in the
preparation step 01/11; the expected outcome is that it will not
show in the output, I think.

Thanks.
