createGraphics ref is inaccurate

createGraphics()
"Note that transparency levels are binary: pixels are either complete opaque or transparent. For the time being (as of release 0127), this means that text characters will be opaque blocks. This will be fixed in a future release (Bug 641)."
This section doesn't see true anymore. I have a sketch drawing text (size 50) on a JAVA2D graphics, then using the result as a mask on a P2D graphics, then using image() to draw the result on the sketch surface with checkered background. I can clearly see semi-transparent pixels making the anti-aliasing of the font.

"renderer        Either P2D (not yet implemented), P3D, JAVA2D, PDF, DXF"
The part in bold should be removed, no

"Returns        PImage or null"
Obviously returns PGraphics instead.
