OK, the fill-column docs should mention that.

However, for unfilling portions of a document, it is much quicker to do
M-x 9999 C-f . M-q

So that should be officially documented.

I'm not saying it should be 9998 or 9999. I'm saying that such a
technique deserves official mention, and should not be left to users to
have to get on IRC each time to ask.
