Agreed on all of this. The format of "952,k" is confusingly nonstandard, I'd
love to see it normalized to "952$k."

I believe those two notes about immediate changes and rebuilds are meant to
convey that any mapping change will be applied to new and edited records
immediately but that existing records will need a rebuild to reflect the
change. This could certainly be explained more clearly.
