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.
