As said, my take is that this ends up too verbose. Personally I'm happy
without any doc for these relatively simple interfaces. I could live
with something lightweight. And if other maintainers think having this
kind of extensive doc is useful, I also wouldn't veto this going in. But
in the current shape I don#t think I'm willing to ack it.
