This is an update to the documentation based on feedback of previous 
reviews.

In this patch, the only change is the MI option name change. Otherwise, 
it should be the same.

[Eli -- I'm not sure it is worth your time to continue to review these 
doc changes of mine. It is going to take a long time to get this series 
resolved and ready for commit. Perhaps I should just post a final doc 
patch when everything else is ready?]

Changes since last version:
