Thanks.

I was looking at this
http://algebraicthunk.net/~dburrows/projects/aptitude/doc/en/ch02s04s05.html
which doesn't document that variable

but I've just installed aptitude-doc-en and it has this
file:///usr/share/doc/aptitude/html/en/ch02s05s05.html
which does...

Still, the "/usr/share/doc/apt/examples/configure-index.gz" purports
to document all apt variables. It's probably just an omission by the
maintainer(s), so I'll file a bug report.
