[  CC to docs, committers removed. ]

Well, if we want to revert, then we have to add <literal> to all the
numbers used in our docs --- there was no logic in what we previously
had.  Do we want that?

Here is an example line I did not change:

   an otherwise idle connection.  A value of 0 uses the system default.

Do we want that 0 to appear in a fixed-width font via <literal>?
It is easy to do but we should decide.
