I do not know what the exact relevance of "deliberately excluded from
the Emacs" is.  What it definitely does _not_ mean is that it is
unimportant.  Due to the fact that we have to keep the size of the
physical Emacs manual down, we can unfortunately not include all
important info in the Emacs manual.  Things included in emacs-xtra
could very easily be of more interest to most people than, say, url,
which many people may never use.

Sincerely,
