General comments; not a final review. * Moving code out of `Utils` is generally always good but it's a bit of a shame to move it down into `formats.html`. That being said, `Signatures` is a good abstraction to be building. * The medium amount of use of `HtmlDocletWriter` in `Signatures` is a code-smell, although arguably, we're just exposing an existing code-smell. We should (generally) continue our efforts to move code out of `HtmlDocletWriter` into other more-focussed abstractions. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/4142
