    Description

      Following a discussion of the behavior of updates with the multi-flag set and no $ operator in the update document. This is currently not allowed (you get an error message when you try it), but there is no documentation on this behavior.

      We concluded that the error condition should be removed and the operation be allowed, but the docs should also document the current behavior, until it is changed.

      This change request is tracked in SERVER-11645.
