+The ``state_output`` parameter now supports ``full_id``, ``changes_id`` and ``terse_id``.

+    The highstate outputter has six output modes,
+    ``full``, ``terse``, ``mixed``, ``changes`` and ``filter``
     * The default is set to ``full``, which will display many lines of detailed
       information for each executed chunk.
     * If ``terse`` is used, then the output is greatly simplified and shown in
       only one line.
     * If ``mixed`` is used, then terse output will be used unless a state
       failed, in which case full output will be used.
-    * If ``mixed_id`` is used, then the mixed form will be used, but the value for ``name``
-      will be drawn from the state ID. This is useful for cases where the name
-      value might be very long and hard to read.
     * If ``changes`` is used, then terse output will be used if there was no
       error and no changes, otherwise full output will be used.
     * If ``filter`` is used, then either or both of two different filters can be
       used: ``exclude`` or ``terse``.
-      * for ``exclude``, state.highstate expects a list of states to be excluded
-        (or ``None``)
-        followed by ``True`` for terse output or ``False`` for regular output.
-        Because of parsing nuances, if only one of these is used, it must still
-        contain a comma. For instance: `exclude=True,`.

+    The output modes have one modifier:

+    If ``_id`` is used, then the corresponding form will be used, but the value for ``name``
