I don't think it should be in either, it should be in it's own node.

Since @auto node headlines are generated according to the structure
of the source code, putting it with one of the existing definition
nodes is wrong.

It is a declaration and belongs in a node with the headline "Declaration"

This could be a special case, where the headline read "Decoration"
instead of "Declaration", but
an interim solution where it was in "Declaration" would be preferable
to putting it in a definition
node, which gives the impression of making it disappear.

I know I'm a PITA about this, but I fear that newbies will slurp their
source into @auto nodes
and their first impression will be that Leo hides things from them.
Not a good first impression.
