I don't see how adding an appendix would be any less expensive or time
consuming than creating a new manual. A revision to add an appendix is
still an ECO, you still have to scrap existing stocks of printed books
and you still have to notify your existing installed base of a document
change and distribute the revised manual to all potentially affected
installations to avoid potential liabilities from someone using an
outdated manual.
