No, the user cannot use these modes because there is no doc,
except in release notes.

Sorry I don't understand why I have to do such obvious comment
after so many years.
And more importantly, why nobody else asked for doc?

I think I will add "UNMAINTAINED" for doc in MAINTAINERS file.
If nobody is interested in doc maintenance, we could "git rm doc/".

Sorry in advance for hijacking this thread.

Please check the comment on top of new features about the ordering.
Mempool features should be mentioned earlier in the list.
