(Also for this reason: Many projects pull docstrings into their Sphinx docs
via autodoc these days, and some also document inherited APIs. When these
inherited APIs come from the stdlib, the markup is often confusing or not
even valid reST.)
Definite +1 from me on adopting reST in docstrings as a standard. I
haven't looked at the Epydoc convention for parameters (etc) well enough
to have an opinion on that.
