When adding an option, we have 5 choices (bool, integer, real, enum, string),
so the comments seem stale.

There are some sentences missing *at ShareUpdateExclusiveLock*, this
patch adds them to make the sentences complete.

One thing I'm not sure is should we use *at ShareUpdateExclusiveLock* or
*with ShareUpdateExclusiveLock*, pls take a look.
