+This section is provided as part of the Feature Proposal template and should be added
+to the issue if it is not already present.
+
+Anyone can add these details, but the product manager who assigns the issue to a specific release
+milestone will ensure these details are present and finalized by the time of that milestone's kickoff.
+Developers, technical writers, and others may help further refine this plan at any time.

+- For any guide or instruction set, should it help address a single use case, or be flexible to address a certain range of use cases?
+- Do we need to update a previously recommended workflow? Should we link the new feature from various relevant locations? Consider all ways documentation should be affected.
+- Are there any key terms or task descriptions that should be included so that the docs are found in relevant searches?
+- Include suggested titles of any pages or subsections, if applicable.
