Clone documentation re. @<file> directives

[Largo84]

I found out the hard way that clones don't survive as clones if they're used inside @auto-... In hindsight, it makes sense to me why that would be the case. However, there's no indication from the documentation (at least that I could find) that warns about not creating clones from nodes under these trees. Would there be any benefit in adding such a warning to the documentation on @<file> directives (where clones be safely used, and where not)?

​Sure.  Care to do this?

Sure, I would be glad to, but how?

​Get checkout permission, if you don't have it, then alter LeoDocs.leo.  When you're finished, I'll run rst3 on the changed @rst outline and upload the relevant file to Leo's web site.​

OK, will look into how to do that. I'm sure I don't have checkout permission. With that, will I be able commit changes to the repo? Thanks!
