+ <para>When enqueuing a unit job (for example as effect of a <command>systemctl start</command>
+ invocation or similar), show brief information about all jobs enqueued, covering both the requested
+ job and any added because of unit dependencies. Note that the output will only include jobs
+ immediately part of the transaction requested. It is possible that service start-up program code
+ run as effect of the enqueued jobs might request further jobs to be pulled in. This means that
+ completion of the listed jobs might ultimately entail more jobs than the listed ones.</para>
