The person making changes to the language needs to ensure those changes
are documented. That can include either writing a first draft of the
docs themselves and/or teaming up with someone on the documentation
team. The most reliable thing to do is commit the php-src and phpdoc
changes in one commit.
At the very least, we could have a TODO file in phpdoc that contains
a simple plain text explanation of the new functionality.
