I'm not sure that is the case.  Given that you typically have the tool
plus its documentation available, as well as a link to the home-page
which talks about this in more detail, I don't think we can easily
"hide" this information from the user.  However, choosing not to
highlight it, as it isn't an explicit goal of the software (in fact the
opposite is the case: the software aims to support as many backends as
possible), is imho a good rule of thumb.

Cheers
