Description:
Verifying bug #68074 I confirmed inconsistency in privilege tables on master and slave, but can not identify if this inconsistency is forgivable, because our manual does not contain information about how GRANT statements are replicated.

How to repeat:
Please add such a chapter under http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/replication-features.html

it's vanished in 5.5 docs, used to be here:

Thank you, Shane!

Although now, I think, we should have more details about how GRANT gets replicated with all binary log formats and clarify inconsistencies like in the report which I mentioned.
