I am not sure if this is a good idea.  It may look "superfluous" for
people who read the manual cover-to-cover.  However, a new person whose
mentor allowed her to peek into his configuration to learn tricks from may
find sendemail.confirm and would try to find an entry in the manual.  The
change in this patch will make it inconvenient to go from variable to
description.
