I wonder whether it would make sense to just remove that line.  Below
an example of what it looks like currently -- the "Documentation:" line
seems rather redundant.  What other could the text be but documentation?

---------
dired-listing-switches is a variable defined in ‘dired.el’.

Its value is "-alh"
Original value was "-al"

  You can customize this variable.
  Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 16.

Documentation:
Switches passed to ‘ls’ for Dired.  MUST contain the ‘l’ option.
May contain all other options that don’t contradict ‘-l’;
may contain even ‘F’, ‘b’, ‘i’ and ‘s’.  See also the variable
‘dired-ls-F-marks-symlinks’ concerning the ‘F’ switch.
