I strongly, vehemently, and violently disagree.

Our documentation team is top notch. They kick *so* much arse. If we build a
framework to help them add these hints to our applications (similar to the
way that i18n works), and hopefully integrate them with existing formats, we
substantially improve their efficiency, visibility *and* our documentation.

We should keep this on the agenda.
