I think we can categorize the current problem as a bug.  There has been 
some good effort to track down the problem, though there's at least
still some discussion that needs to occur before we can say the problem 
is resolved.  Given that this is likely a bug, it doesn't make much sense
to document it formally in the FAQ or UG.  If it becomes a limitation 
for some reason, then the UG is likely to be the best place for added 
documentation, unless the problem actually becomes a FAQ.
