And in OpenBSD-current the manpage still reads: "...keep state

Not in the -current running here. The manpage reads:
"A number of options related to stateful tracking can be applied on a per-rule basis. keep state, modulate state and synproxy state support these options, and keep state must be specified explicitly to apply options to a rule."

And the "options" referred to are listed in that section, such as max,
timeout, no-sync, sloppy, etc. If you're not applying the options, keep state
is implied.

Sorry, I misread that paragraph.  I also missed this:

pass The packet is passed; state is created state unless the no state
           option is specified.

By default pf(4) filters packets statefully; the first time a packet matches a pass rule, a state entry is created; for subsequent packets the
     filter checks whether the packet matches any state.

Excuse me for the noise.
