Existing documentation for mentions that should be updated:

Background:

@WMDE-leszek could you link your suggestion for how to change documentation here?

You can document a few days before changes are merged. Just add them to a "future features" section and use present tense to avoid extra work for translators. They will be moved to the appropriate sections when the feature is available. I've updated T141884 to reflect that.
