fwiw, i agree with Viktor on this proposal.  Clear, sane APIs require
documentation, and just writing up the documentation can sometimes spur
people to evaluate the functionality differently and look for bugs in
new ways.

If anyone understands a function well enough to fix bugs in it, you should
understand it well enough to write minimal documentation.
