Comment (by roed):
Replying to [comment:276 jdemeyer]:
> While you were developing this, did you consider using Python's
[http://docs.python.org/2/library/doctest.html#doctest.DocTestFinder
DocTestFinder] to extract docstrings from Python files? The current code
here doesn't use `object.__doc__`, perhaps the Python doctest module does.
I ask because #13605 added several classes with a dynamic `__doc__`.
I didn't, and it sounds like a good idea. We can override it to deal with
Cython classes if necessary.
Do you think we should make this change on this ticket or a followup? I
won't be able to work on it much until next week (I'm still in Hawaii
after Sage Days 46).
