I made to changes from the original version [v99]. In [v100] I consolidated the 
columns are proposed before. In the current [v101] version I changed the order 
of the columns to Name | Required | description and consolidated the 
Description + Default Value + Example together. I believe the latter to be a 
better choice (it also renders better). This is what I intend to use going 
forward, if no objections.
