Fine by me, what would you propose to clarify that? (Though I have the
suspicion that the explanation will be three years late ;-)

I have no idea, as I do not understand the reason myself yet. I'm not a
frequent user of submodules and not a user of the ignore option at all,
so I can't tell what's best. I'd just like the new behavior to be
justified somewhere.

I also think that the documentation in Documentation/config.txt could be
updated. Perhaps adding something like

	To view the summary for submodules ignored by 'git status', one
	can use 'git submodules summary' which shows a similar output
	but does not honor this option.
