It is mentioned in the Networking section.  The entire document is arguably relevant to a sysadmin, but I can see where placing that in the higher level Desktop category might be confusing.  This bears examination for the next release, IMO.

Many changes could arguably fit into multiple beats - subcategories in the document - and we try to pick the most appropriate one. Desktop changes vs system administrator changes is mostly a way to organize content rather than define scope, and perhaps an unneeded one.

Yes, it is too late to change this.  I might take time away from other work for outright factual errors and such, but not for an aesthetic reorganization.

By the way, docs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx might be more appropriate.
