Description

In chapter 16. User prompts:

By default user prompts are not handled automatically unless a user prompt handler has been defined

This statement would only be true if the default value for unhandledPromptBehavior were "ignore" instead of "dismiss and notify". Even if an error is being returned, the user prompt is still being handled automatically for the user.

Research direction

Start with chapter 16, “User prompts,” and the definition of the default unhandledPromptBehavior value. Check that the statement about prompts not being handled automatically matches the documented default of “dismiss and notify”; it is done when the wording accurately describes that behavior.
