All of the above, but before core documentation is changed, there
should be proven value, which would come from other projects making
use of the documentation extensions.

I'm in this for the overall betterment of documentation in the clojure
eco-system on the whole, if people find value in it (which I imagine
people would be ok with richer, non-gobbledegooked documentation, if
that can actually even be done).

Great! This will certainly be helpful in the future.
