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.
