Thank you for the idea!

Yes, I am familiar with Swagger and that would be huge for our current APIs
and others that may come along.
I think the effort to add a swagger filter or the like will be only one
part of the larger effort of how it integrates into Knox, the site, the
Admin UI, the docs, etc.

I think that a KIP detailing the full vision would make a lot of sense.

+1 on moving forward with a KIP and/or JIRA to continue discussion and
tease out design considerations.
