 This function will block until all nodes have been resolved and, for slave
 nodes, until it has successfully established a connection to a master
 server.
 
+All the seednodes will also be specially marked to automatically retry
+connecting to them infinitely.
+
 Example: become a public node listening on the guessed noderef, or the one
 specified via C<aemp> for the current node. This should be the most common
 form of invocation for "daemon"-type nodes.
