--- Comment #3 from Damien Miller <djm at mindrot.org> ---
Done. The manual text (coming in openssh-5.7) now reads:

>     HostName
>             Specifies the real host name to log into.  This can be used to
>             specify nicknames or abbreviations for hosts.  If the hostname
>             contains the character sequence `%h', then this will be replaced
>             with the host name specified on the command line (this is useful
>             for manipulating unqualified names).  The character sequence `%%'
>             will be replaced by a single `%' character, which may be used
>             when specifying IPv6 link-local addresses.
>
>             The default is the name given on the command line.  Numeric IP
>             addresses are also permitted (both on the command line and in
>             HostName specifications).
