The manual says (p.204):

\starttextrule[.1.]{.2.}...\stoptextrule
.1. top bottom
.2. text

But parameter [.1.] is not picked up and the code in core-rul.tex is:

\def\starttextrule#1%

instead of the expected \def\starttexrule{\dosingleargument\dostarttextrule} etc.

Is this a deliberate change from the manual, so that I can cross out the parameter [.1.] there, or something else?
