Well, if we're being really, really picky (which, apparently, we are ;), this should probably also be "it would have been unknown...". But, personally, I'm thankful enough that there are so many non-native English speakers prepared to keep the manual in such good shape that I tend to let small imprecisions like this go, so long as the intent is obvious and unambiguous. (Mind you, I could put together a small list of words and constructs that non-native-speakers seem to get consistently wrong, if I could be bothered to be bothered about it. ;) Cheers!
