That's one way to do it. But it was also meant to allow setting it the way I
mentioned, just like the documentation says. It's not exactly strictly
logical, but very simple and intuitive to use, and the preferred method of
many. And as I understood Thorsten, support for this trick was supposed to
be kept, only, the orthographic keyword should be moved to the beginning,
but it would still work the same way. However, that doesn't seem to be the
case.
