Well, obviously, my first thought when I saw this is that if there was
a seperate documentation extraction mechanism I could easily use it
for Swindle (I did implement some in-line documentation thing, and the
part of the actual extraction is just a simple regexp hack, so getting
s-exp documentation would make that part easier).  But also, if the
annotations are easy enough, and the extraction is robust enough, it
should be useful in very different contexts like latex, info, and even
interactive help...
