Hi Florian,

to quote from the docs:

"For the *brief* description there are also several possibilities:

 1.

    One could use the \brief
    <http://www.stack.nl/%7Edimitri/doxygen/manual/commands.html#cmdbrief>
    command [...]

 2.

    If JAVADOC_AUTOBRIEF
    
<http://www.stack.nl/%7Edimitri/doxygen/manual/config.html#cfg_javadoc_autobrief>
    is set to |YES| in the configuration file, then [...]

 3.

    A third option is to use a special *C++ style comment* which does
    not span more than *one line*. Here are two examples:

    /// Brief description.
    /** Detailed description. */

    or

    //! Brief description.

    //! Detailed description 
    //! starts here.

    Note the blank line in the last example, which is required to
    separate the brief description from the block containing the
    detailed description. The JAVADOC_AUTOBRIEF
    
<http://www.stack.nl/%7Edimitri/doxygen/manual/config.html#cfg_javadoc_autobrief>
    should also be set to |NO| for this case."

(emphasis added).

In other words, you're doing it perfectly right, and the behaviour is
officially supported.
