Any news on this?

To be clear, question is not about an insignificant documentation
oversight. It is about copying bits from inner packets to outer packets
of a secure* tunnel and documenting it AFAICT nowhere, while claiming
extensive documentation.

* it really should be specified what secure tunnel means, as it has many
plausible interpretations and wireguard surely does not fulfill all of them.
