I’d prefer if it were used only for non-ice-9 modules. I really sympathize with what the GCS says (info "(standards) Doc Strings and Manuals"): Some programming systems, such as Emacs, provide a documentation string for each function, command or variable. You may be tempted to write a reference manual by compiling the documentation strings and writing a little additional text to go around them--but you must not do it. That approach is a fundamental mistake. The text of well-written documentation strings will be entirely wrong for a manual. Thanks, Ludo’.
