highlighted in paragraph text as an action for the command, it does not appear
in the summary at the top of the page, nor in the detailed DESCRIPTION section
that describes each of the actions.

A PR was just entered for that:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=191534
"list" and "status" and a couple of others that only apply
for some GEOM
modules (load, unload) are part of the base GEOM command set. I was
going to say we should just refer the reader to another page, maybe
geom(8).
But gmirror(8) does include those commands in the synopsis. We should
be consistent with this, and I'd lean toward doing it the way gmirror(8)
does now.
