Short description of error
In the notes it is stated that:

"Even if any type of object seems to be accepted by the Object field (meshes, curves, even metas...), only meshes really work. All other types just make the bone invisible."

However, this problem have been solved because Curve and even metaballs are visible as custom bone shapes.

Testing it out, it appears that this bug was resolved at least in Blender 3.3.5 LTS version but it was never updated in the manual.
