I’ve been away from LaTeX development work for a while; I’ve been known to let primitives slip through the cracks.
Thanks for letting us know — I wouldn’t be surprised if there were some more we overlooked.

These commands are all described in the pdfTeX manual, and I’ve now added some (fairly brief) details to xetexref (attached).

Khaled, would you be able update the copy in the xetex repo?

Thanks all,
Will
