Ah, OK, I was turned around then: this variable is for forward-compatibility and
not backward. I suggest mentioning in the doc string that setting the variable
makes Emacs compatible with planned-for-28 behavior, and that the variable is
planned to go away in Emacs 28. (It's a temporary variable, so to speak....)

Good point, I've amended the docstring and pushed the patch to master as ddb74b2027.
