Re: emacs-26: `with-eval-after-load' docstring omission

(In reply to Stefan.)

No, there is no specific issue involved. Just some harmless and
temporary confusion, that's all.

After reading ‘with-eval-after-load’ docstring (which just says
"Execute BODY after FILE is loaded.") I expected that BODY would be
executed just like in ‘eval-after-load’, which by default passes forms
to ‘eval’.

My argument is that there are implicit behaviours that *might* lead to
wrong assumptions. In my case, I had to look at ‘with-eval-after-load’
code and re-read ‘eval-after-load’ docstring to clearly understand the
differences.
