Questions about Pywikibot:

Digging into the example, there's this textlib.extract_sections, but it's not documented as part of the API. What gives?
Once you extract a document into its corresponding sections, you can pick out a specific section. But what then?
You can't (apparently) modify the Section object.
You can't create your own Section, because it's a private object, not documented, not part of public API.
So, we end up looping over each section, and finding section.title + section.content unless it's the section we want.
This seems really idiotic, but there's no documentation of any of these functions or objects, sooooo what the fuck am I supposed to do?
I'm getting stuck on the very first non-trivial task I have, the very first non-trivial article I'm editing.
All kinds of mysterious stuff going on in the pywikibot library that isn't documented. WTF??
