It is a good point.

Do people involved in filter-branch feel the implementation/interface is
stable enough these days to allow us to add this to the first paragraph of
the "Filters" description in the documentation?  It currently talks about
the environment variables exported for the use of filter programs, and "In
which directory will my filter run? --- I need to know it when I want to
reference filesystem entities using relative paths in my filter." would
fit well.
