I prefer old style documentation that help me to enter directly in the
code to understand how it works.

ok, I can create my own documentation, but I generally I find it more
useful having it online
The rationale was that users of the documentation should not need to
read the code of individual functions. If they do, then the
documentation is simply not good enough. Many other projects we use
(like Qt, GDAL, GEOS) do not include that either. Those links simply
make the documentation more bloated. Another reason is that if someone
needs to browse the code, any IDE with c++ support is 10x more
efficient for that.

Well, yes, the documentation is not good enough, but I don't think it is a good reason to remove a useful link. I found it quite useful, I used it mainly in my job where I did not have admin rights to install a C++ IDE or any external software. It was quite handy to have the code easily available when the documentation was incomplete or outdated.
