  For a symbol, its value is used (but it is ignored if t or nil).
   A string appearing directly as the value of a symbol is processed verbatim
   in that the %-constructs below are not recognized.
+  Note that unless the symbol is marked as a `risky-local-variable', all
+  properties in any strings, as well as all :eval and :propertize forms 
+  in the value of that symbol will be ignored.
  For a list of the form `(:eval FORM)', FORM is evaluated and the result
   is used as a mode line element.
+ For a list of the form `(:propertize ELT PROPS...)', ELT is displayed
+  with the specified properties PROPS applied.
  For a list whose car is a symbol, the symbol's value is taken,
   and if that is non-nil, the cadr of the list is processed recursively.
   Otherwise, the caddr of the list (if there is one) is processed.
