Thanks for updating the document, it basically looks good. One thing,
though, each command should be on a single line. The multi-line example
you gave won't work. There are cases where it works having more than
one command on one line, but that's (or was) mostly an implementation
detail.

I don't see a reference to edit at bugs.launchpad.net, where you can send
batch change emails. There are also no references to the 'summary' and
'unsubscribe' commands.

Regards,

Bjorn
