5 - documentation updates
    I'm on the fence about having these in a separate commit like the
    current patch 5 or updating the documentation when the code is
    changed.

It's generally more reviewer-friendly to bundle documentation change
into the patch which changes the observable behavior. This way, a
reviewer has the behavior change fresh in mind and can verify that the
revised documentation matches the new implementation. Same goes for
revising tests in the same patch which changes behavior (though, of
course, revising tests at the same time as the change of behavior is
also mandatory for maintaining bisectability).

Good point, I think a couple of the documentation changes like recommending "systemctl --user edit" were improving the existing docs and so they should be in a separate commit at the start of the series. The other patches should update the documentation as the code changes.

Thanks

Phillip
