No, it doesn't.  The fast that it does not return 404 does not
mean it exists, this is how wikis work.  Please read the contents.

Just as we managed to cool down this shitstorm of controversial
commits hitting the tree undiscussed, you're pouring more oil to
the flames.  This has to stop.  Again, this commit must be reverted
and DR opened with proposed changes if you feel they're warranted,
because IMHO they are not: as with "master volume", MBR has its
well defined meaning, there's no "slave boot record" and hence this
change was totally uncalled for.
