This use-case is to me indicative of a more general issue.

Most of the existing documentation/help created thus far by the community (5 years worth) is going to become significantly less useful, and initially the proportion of "current stuff" is going to be low. The applications themselves are not changing, and the preference options people need to tweak aren't changing that much either, but the basic access methods to get to that stage /are/ going to differ; the wealth of instructions for System->About Ubuntu, or Applications->Accessories->Terminal, or System->Administration->Login Screen to get to the basic state of having a familiar login session, or getting up a terminal or start fixing, or just finding out the version of Ubuntu to know which section of the instructions to follow are not going to be there.
