Hello guys,

Just for the record, I've started coding a small django app in github to
see how far can I get with regards a richer API reference web interface.
I'm reusing Mikkael Kampstrup's giraffe[1] AST code for GIR and I'm
translating that to a django data model (SQL) structure.

There are two features missing from both devhelp and the current online API
reference that I'm interested in achieving:
- Figuring out properties/methods/signals from parent classes or interfaces
inline (collapsed initially)
- Figuring out which methods/signals use a given type as argument, or which
classes/interfaces as properties

I think that a dynamic approach is much more interesting than the current
statically generated one. And quite frankly, as it stands right now, it's
not
