Not sure if this has been reported before.
I was reading through the docs on black hole warps (6.7.12.6.1)
The syntax is given as
BLACK_HOLE_WARP:
    warp
    {
        black_hole <Location>, Radius
        [BLACK_HOLE_ITEMS...]
    }
BLACK_HOLE_ITEMS:
    strength Strength | falloff Amount | inverse | type Type |
    repeat <Repeat> | turbulence <Amount>

The black_hole_item 'type' is not mentioned anywhere else in that section
and the entry for 'type' in the index refers to the section on finite patch
primitives

Pov-ray 3.5 beta 9

It doesn't do anything. Kind of like the "track" keyword for lights, 
whatever this was supposed to do, it wasn't finished.
