It is documented, albeit too tersely. I tried to improve it by
installing the attached.

Thanks, Paul. In
--text (-a) is documented to change only the output, not grep's exit status.
Yet, it does change the exit status here:
$ printf "a\0b\n" | LC_ALL=C src/grep -la a.b; echo $?
(standard input)
0
$ printf "a\0b\n" | LC_ALL=C src/grep -l a.b; echo $?
1
