Maven assembly: useStrictFiltering not available for fileSets?

To quote the doc:

useStrictFiltering is a flag that tells the assembly plugin to track each include/exclude pattern to make sure it's used during creation of the assembly

And this says that it is available for fileSets: https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/advanced-descriptor-topics.html

However the xsd disageees - dependencySets have useStrictFiltering, but not fileSets: http://maven.apache.org/xsd/assembly-1.1.3.xsd

Maven indeed grumbles if I try and use useStrictFiltering, but I need the functionality of useStrictFiltering on fileSets otherwise parts of my assembly could be missed out without me knowing.

Am I missing something, or is this rudimentary functionality simply missing?

Thanks

It looks like it simply is not supported:
