This is ridiculous. Clearly a huge number of people are upset by this development. <a href="http://lwn.net/Articles/278995/">It even got a mention on LWN.</a>

As Ralph pointed out, someone even submitted a patch to revert the bug, and had his comments deleted for his trouble.

The least you can do is leave the bug open until the help docs get updated. As it stands the old behavior is still documented but not available.

This is sound of community feedback. A big fat "Invalid" with no explanation is not likely to win over users. Please let us know why this bug is invalid or leave it open until the documentation gets updated.
