I'd prefer to see an issue raised for the documentation by the developer
at the time the new feature is pushed to staging. Otherwise it is likely
to be forgotten. It was only by chance that I happened to find the
change to \time recently and my first action was to raise an issue to
document it. If documentation is to be done as a separate activity it
should be done under an issue anyway, to keep the Bug Squad happy.
