I'll take a look at it, but on the documentation list there was recently a discussion as to what to do with the FAQ: Merge it into the handbook or a complete rewrite. In many cases, questions should be merged into the handbook, after all if a question continuously reappears so as to create an entry in the FAQ it may be because it is not explained well enough in the man-pages or the handbook. But for the above question, I don't see this fit particularly well into the handbook. Not to offend OP, the occasional reappearance of a question is fine, it was only the short latancy (<5h) that made me think, "please, read the list also".
