The place to discuss things like this is freebsd-doc@  As for contact 
information you can always look at cvs log to get an idea who did commit to 
the file before (in this case it'd turn up my name).  There is also 
freebsd-pf@ to discuss pf related topics.  As for the request itself.  As for 
the request itself, I am very reluctant to take manpages off the vendor 
branch too much without very good reason.  Everything you change you have to 
catch up manually once we import new code ... so this is a long term 
commitment.
