I think it's kind of inevitable; I don't think it's possible to make a 
good document extraction system without object introspection, and that 
it's easier to simply resolve the non-importability of modules (or build 
docs on project machines that are fully set up, or whatever).  Obviously 
this doesn't work well when you are trying to generate documents for 
someone else's project, but I think it's possible to produce very good 
results when the package wasn't intended for use with a given extraction 
tool.
