It makes the most difference on projects where you don't have push
rights, because the maintainer with push rights will use 'git am' to
snarf in your email message, which discards comments after ---.  Once
you have push rights yourself, 'git am' is no longer involved in the
loop, so there is nothing in the workflow to strip the comments, at
which point it doesn't matter where you injected the comments into your
email, other than the consistency factor.  At any rate, it's always nice
to know how to make the most use of a workflow that simplifies review
time, which includes being consistent by injecting your email-only
comments after ---.

Technically, a flags of 0 will give the same result (as the combination
of ACTIVE|INACTIVE covers all domains); but this is reasonable for the
example program (easier to see what to modify to get just half the set).

This might be worth putting in the commit message.

At any rate, since this is a doc-only change, I'm comfortable with you
pushing it before the 1.0.3 release.
