Hi Ihor,

Consider for example:

    minimal   show current headline; if point is not on headline, also
show entry

So if you have:

* a
* b
** b1
** b2
** b3
* c

I see no reason why a match inside b2 will hide b1 and b3 but not a
and c (I'm referring to the headings, not the contents). The only way
to change the documentation to convey that is to state an explicit
exception for the top level, but that seems extremely ad hoc. Perhaps
there is a rationale, some presumption about what is in the top-level
take makes it a valuable context no matter what the preferred context
detail is set to, but if that's the case I find it too opinionated.

Best regards,
Carlos
