incomplete description of return value of stats::uniroot()?

The "Value" section in the documentation of stats::uniroot() mentions component "init.it" of the returned result:
I don't see "init.it"  described anywhere in that help page. It is technically not an omission, since the description says "at least the following components...", so maybe it is absent on purpose?
\code{iter} includes the number of iterations, if any, done initially to ensure opposite signs at the ends of the interval.
This number is available separately in component \code{init.it}. If no extension of the interval was attempted, \code{init.it} is set to NA.
