Oddly every mention of the drivers ,available via this utility, in Help documentation refers only about proprietary drivers and how they cannot be supported by Ubuntu developers. Even the topic is "Proprietary Drivers".

Maybe the documentation needs to be updated?

Even the mention of "No proprietary drivers... ", in bold , seems misleading as to its only function. [screenshot attached]
There is no mention of searching in the docs either. Is this a future plan or it searches already?
