Hi The patch is unfortunately not really precise. This applies only when you allocate first pool type volume in a VG. IMHO better is to refer directly into 'lvmthin' man page for closer detail if user is interested. Majority of users simply does not care about negligible size of metadata volume, so the information is rather for very experienced users and should be in some dedicated section for them.
