 Description   

This is for:

reIndex will rebuild indexes in the background if the index was originally specified with this option. However, reIndex will rebuild the _id index in the foreground, which takes the database’s write lock.

This is not true. Currently reIndex ignores the background flag on each index and builds in the foreground - until we support a background option for the reindex command (SERVER-787). So reIndex will block other operations until it has completed.
