Ah I see you are suggesting a document not a get_maintainer.pl edit, my 
mistake.

Yes, I'm fine to change the text to something like this if you feel it 
reads better that way.

I'd still appreciate some more eloboration/rationale on what you don't 
like about giving an example.

Is it the example in general you dislike ? Personally I find an example 
a useful thing but, that's just a personal preference.
