Is this (are these) special cases documented? I just looked through my
(admittedly obsolete) bash man page and couldn't find any mention of
special behavior of the "jobs" builtin. But presumably careful reading
of the documentation of "command", "builtin", and "jobs" would show
which cases work in which way.
