I have read the latest patch from Tom and I have a suggestion about
this part:
+     and its settings take effect in the same way.  Settings
+     in <filename>postgresql.auto.conf</filename> override those
+     in <filename>postgresql.conf</filename>.

It seems to me that we should mention included files here, as any
settings in postgresql.auto.conf override these as well.
