The example of the "new 5.0" sites/all support on this page [1] is
wrong.  It says:



/drupal
  /sites
    /default
       settings.php
    /all
       /modules
       /themes
       /files

Which is not correct.  sites/all does NOT provide any magic support for
files, and in fact putting files there is a rather bad idea.  It's for
modules and themes that you want shared only.  A more correct example
would be:



/drupal
  /sites
    /default
       /files
       /modules
       /themes
       settings.php
    /all
       /modules
       /themes

(I'm not sure what the rule is for what counts as "critical" for
documentation, but I figure "incorrect information" is a good guess. 
Please correct if I'm mistaken.)
