Thanks for this explication! I was always in doubt where exactly
“destination=*” had to be applied and the description on the wiki is not
really easy to understand (and the examples IMHO make the things even more
unclear instead of making them clear). Your explication is clear and easy
to understand. Maybe we could add you explication to the wiki? (I would
volonteer to do so.)
