Hi,
here is a list for amendment which I noticed.
 
----------
Layer masks can be added to a layer without any alpha channel.
When the layer mask is applied, the layer gets its own alpha channnel.
It can be seen at the Layers dialog: the font face of the layer name becomes
bold to normal.

dialogs/layer-mask.xml
          To create a layer mask start with a right click on the layer to call
          the context menu and select <guilabel>Add layer mask</guilabel>
-         in the menu. If the menu item is grayed first select
-         <guilabel>Add Alpha channel</guilabel> in the same menu. A dialog
+         in the menu. A dialog
          appears where you can initialize the content of the mask:

menus/layer/mask-add.xml
    The <guimenuitem>Add Layer Mask</guimenuitem> command adds a layer mask
    to the active layer. It displays a dialog in which you can set the
    initial properties of the mask. If the layer already has a layer mask,
-   or if it cannot have one because it does not have an alpha channel, the
-   menu entry is insensitive and grayed out.
+   the menu entry is insensitive and grayed out.
  </para>
  <para>

menus/layer/mask-add.xml
    The <guimenuitem>Apply Layer Mask</guimenuitem> command merges the
    layer mask with the current layer. The transparency information in the
    layer mask is transferred to the alpha channel and the layer mask is
-   removed. If the active layer does not have a layer mask, the menu entry
+   removed. Then the layer get its own alpha channel in case it does not
+   exist. If the active layer does not have a layer mask, the menu entry
    is insensitive and grayed out. See the
    <link linkend="gimp-layer-mask">Layer Masks</link>

list are removed.

and two buttons: <guibutton>Stroke Path</guibutton> and
<guibutton>Selection from Path</guibutton>, but no

-               From the <guilabel>Selection to Path</guilabel> button in
-               the Tool Options for the Path tool.
-             </para>
            </listitem>

-----------
Pointer dialog's context menu does not have preview-icons submenu.

dialogs/pointer-dialog.xml

anytime, even if the active image's mode is not RGB.  Of cource, it can do
nothing on grayscale or indexed images.
