Epic has Docs Needed = None so I came here to ask the same question of Kevin Ngo ; would like to confirm whether there is a doc need now or in the future.

Michael Lewis this is an experimental feature that can be used by our SH customers. I believe its customary to document experimental changes such as these in our release notes with caution - could you confirm? if so, this PR cockroachdb/cockroach#104302 has much of the necessary details!
