Given my current poor state of knowledge, that does indeed seem
like a better solution; I can't imagine a situation where the current
behavior is useful.

But can we not stall a straightforward and harmless documentation
upgrade waiting for a more ambitious solution?  A significant
change to kbuild like that is going to trigger a (beneficial, but
slow) wave of bug reports and Kconfig/Makefile fixes.
