Correct.
I still prefer my original suggestion, i.e. allow repos with grafts to
be cloned, yet disregard the grafts during the cloning process.
The trouble is that with your suggestion, it becomes a bit convoluted
when grafts are being used and when not. It already is complicated as
it is, so I suggest we try and keep git honest so that it does exactly
what one would expect (instead of documenting awkward behaviour).
As soon as time permits, I'll submit appropriate patches to implement
this, as well as some other sanity check patches which I've been
contemplating to help the grafter detect "bad" grafts as early as
possible.
