Which means, I have to put additional efforts to docs beyond programming... 
Given the fact that many extension authors write docs very fomally (meaning 
"very brief, just to show that there is a doc"), I expect that there will 
be even less docs now.

What was the reason behind the change? Was it a hope that extension authors 
will rush to learn a new syntax and be happy to write docs using tags 
instead of a word processor? :)
