Yes, this should be mentioned in the configuration section related to 
thread stacks. I work currently on a specification of the configuration 
options in Doorstop YAML files. I would like to generate the 
documentation sources with a Python script from the YAML files. It will 
be easier to regroup the configuration option documentation afterwards. 
I updated the ticket with this TODO.
