What's cross-library-indexing? You mean show documentation for
many libraries at once?
Yes, many libraries, source code with builtin links, links to
github with line numbers, docs for other languages when D
wrappers are provided. The ideal is to propagate as much useful
information as possible to a normalized universal format that
makes it easy to build intelligent information systems using some
kind of deduction. You should generate a database, not a document.
HTML is underpowered and assumes that domain specific semantical
information is encoded in a different layer like RDF, but that
leads to solutions that are overly complicated compared to a
domain specific XML format.
