It wasnt. He said it should be documented. I pointed out it already was. 
Thats very different from "RTFM".

Stating a fact wouldnt drive away users. I contribute to documentation 
and number of times in fedoraforum and fedora-list that I had to point 
out to my own documentation is several hundreds for every release. If 
anybody working in documentation believes that end users actually read 
all of the documentation, do let me know.
