 * Translation primitives ``cnat_translation_ip4`` based on sessions

-Creating a session will also create a reverse session (for matching return traffic),

+Creating a session will also create reverse session matching return traffic unless told otherwise by setting ``CNAT_TR_FLAG_NO_RETURN_SESSION`` on the translation. This will call the NAT nodes on the return flow and perform the inverse translation.
 
 Known limitations
 _________________
 
 This plugin is still under development, it lacks the following features :
 * Load balancing doesn't support parametric probabilities
-* VRFs aren't supported. All rules apply to fib table 0 only
+* VRFs are not supported, all rules apply regardless of the FIB table.
 * Programmatic session handling (deletion, lifetime updates) aren't supported
-* ICMP is not yet supported
-* Traffic matching is only done based on ``(proto, dst_addr, dst_port)`` source matching isn't supported
+* translations (i.e. rewriting the destination address) only match on the three
+tuple ``(proto, dst_addr, dst_port)`` other matches are not supported
 * Statistics & session tracking are still rudimentary.
