bug#57890: 28.1; Doc string of `initial-frame-alist' |

The doc string seems to suggest that the option, or its use, somehow
depends on X resources:
... If you want the initial frame
to have the proper geometry as soon as it appears, you need to
use this three-step process:
* Specify X resources to give the geometry you want.
* Set 'default-frame-alist' to override these options so that they
don't affect subsequent frames.
* Set 'initial-frame-alist' in a way that matches the X resources,
to override what you put in 'default-frame-alist'.
That text is not introduced by anything saying, e.g., IF you are
using X resources or by saying that this 3-step process is
applicable only if you can use X resources. At least some of it
doesn't make sense without X resources, AFAIK.
The coverage in the Emacs and Elisp manuals seems OK - doesn't present
this problem/confusion.
