OK, sorry about that. It is true. I wrote that page one week ago, during 
the review, as additional doc, and it gives the necessary theoretical 
background. It *is or will be* (depending how you consider it) 
implemented like that but *not yet* as a separate function. It is 
written in the lower part of that page but not in the first line.

Sorry about the confusion, and (I now understand better) also about my 
remark about invalid input, I understand the confusions now, you are 
right to test like that.
