I think there is a misunderstanding :). I do not see any implication to the language meta-model in the remark of Clement. In fact, I expressed exactly the same opinion, that the design of things like PythonDoc comes from the fact that those people do not rely on an IDE, so their design focuses on the only thing they have: source code. Clement remarked that we already have SUnit tests and he suggested that we could just enhance the IDE to present them next to the methods. This might actually be less straightforward with SUnit because it was not made for preserving links to the code, but it can work out of the box with something like GTExamples.
