Comment(by dustymugs):

 When thinking about the correct behavior of not specifying nband, I have
 to ask myself...

 If a user doesn't provide a value for nband when nband is a possible
 parameter, what area should be considered?  The area covered by the
 raster?  Or the area covered by band 1 of the raster?

 Personally, I'd lead towards the area covered by the raster.  Since the
 user didn't provide an explicit value for nband, the response should not
 be explicit.

 I'm for changing the docs to correctly reflect the behavior.
