Hi Jacob, thanks for the patches.
I have notes on individual patches, see those for more information.
I also asked claude code to determine if, after these updates, there
were any missing/inconsistent documentation, and it came back with the
following:
* The set-ssl command help text uses different nomenclature from the
XML. The help text uses "SSL-PROTOS" and "SSL-CIPHERS" but the XML
uses "ssl-protocol-list" and "ssl-cipher-list".
* The sbctl_usage() string is missing the following:
* init: Command missing entirely
* show: --filter=
* chassis-add: --may-exist
* chassis-del: --if-exists
* lsp-bind: --may-exist
* lsp-unbind: --if-exists
* lflow-list: --uuid, --ovs, --stats, --vflows
* dump-flows: --uuid, --ovs, --stats, --vflows
* set-ssl: --bootstrap
* While the global "--no-leader-only" option is documented in the help
text, "--leader-only", "--shuffle-remotes", and "--no-shuffle-remotes"
are not.
I also have one additional note with regards to the cover letter
itself. See below.

I normally wouldn't care about this sort of thing on a cover letter,
but since the series deals with documentation and editing, it makes
sense to get the cover letter correct, too :)
