The general rules are: 
http://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/stable-branches.html

"Note - It’s nevertheless allowed to backport fixes for other bugs if their 
safety can be easily proved. For example, documentation fixes, debug log 
message typo corrections, test only changes, patches that enhance test 
coverage, configuration file content fixes can apply to all supported 
branches. For those types of backports, stable maintainers will decide on case 
by case basis. "

I would consider "missing documentation for a(n important) feature" as a bug, 
and I would try to backport it - at least for the project I'm involved in 
(Sahara).
