Sorry about that. So would you like this better documented? The whole situation
is unfortunate.

I missed that patch when writing this PR because it wasn't posted to
gcc-patches@ :-(

Just found:
gfortran.texi – Extensions to namelist

  When writing a namelist, if no @code{DELIM=} is specified, by default a
  double quote is used to delimit character strings. If -std=F95, F2003,
  or F2008, etc, the delim status is set to 'none'.  Defaulting to
  quotes ensures that namelists with character strings can be subsequently
  read back in accurately.

This might be sufficient or the wording can be improved. Hence, one can also
close PR again.
