Just write text, it'll all work out in the end :)

Yeah, I get it.  That markup generates cross-references, which can be
seriously useful for readers - we want that.  But I do wonder if we
couldn't do it automatically with just a little bit of scripting work.
It's not to hard to recognize this_is_a_function(), after all.  I'll look
into that, it would definitely help to remove some gunk from the source
docs.
