Well, since no one (including Walter or Andrei) could give a propery definition for storage class last time I brought it up, I don't know what we'd put in the docs. If you or someone else can come up with something appropriate though, that would be great. It's clear which are type qualifiers / constructors, but everything else has to be inferred from that. - Jonathan M Davis
