For people writing new long descriptions, first off. That the review
recommended to use a different itemize symbol than what seemed to be
mostly silent consensus was problematic I think and I am glad that their
recommendations have been adjusted.
Also, I did not necessarily mean the Policy Manual when refererring to
recommending above (once it gets accepted there, filing wishlist bugs
looks sensible) but other possibly existing (or non-existing)
style-guides, like the dev-ref etc.
