Well... In fact I didn't intend for that option to ever be used by 
anything but test scripts in order to trigger some code paths without 
generating jumbo packs (don't know what people would think of me if I 
created a 8GB pack in my test ;-)).  Therefore I didn't think that 
option was worth documenting.

But if you insist I'll send you a patch.
