I think it is OK if some option is described as "similar to ..., but in addition ...", as long as the "in addition" part is strictly additive this is unambiguous. Otherwise, we'd have to repeat a lot of text, and then we'd probably forget to adjust some of the descriptions when doing changes. But when the "in addition" part is about replacing or removing parts of functionality, it is better to avoid this pattern and describe the later option from scratch. Some paragraph breaks are added and minor changes made. UID/GID is changed to user/group, since we generally expect user/group names to be used, not numeric ids. Fixes #11115.
