Defect in manual section "Here Strings"

[dietmar.schindler]

In the section https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bash.html#Here-Strings 
there is no mention (as far as I can see, it doesn't follow from the documented 
expansions etc.) that the result is terminated with a newline (see e. g. od 
<<<''). This puzzles users and leads to speculation - see e. g. 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33245568/why-does-bash-always-add-a-newline-when-expanding-here-strings
 - on correctness, dependability and intent of the behavior. To clarify it, I 
suggest to change the last sentence from

        The result is supplied as a single string to the command on its 
standard input.

to

        The result with a newline appended is supplied as a single string to 
the command on its standard input.
