When asking for documentation here I am often answered: Check the code.
Yep. Correct. If you think the documentation is bad, check the code and write
it. Alan, you are welcome to modify the domunentation in the LCL and send a
patch. You can also freely update the wiki docs. There's no problem about it
and you don't have to ask for permission.
That's a bad idea.
The person who wrote the code is the only person who knows what he intended.
This person has to write the documentation.
Not only that it would take a lot of (unneccessary) additional time to wade
through
foreign code (while the original coder already knew this after writing it).
Also, every bug would become part of the documentation as it is "how it is
coded".
