Overall LGTM, few nits below.

Shoudn't it be a doxygen style comment?

Please, put the documentation on the same like or just
put documentation before the documented member.

As I understand the above comment is for a group of below
fields. If so, Doxygen annocation for member groups should
be used.

May I ask to avoid usage of documentation after member in a
separate line. It makes sense to if it is located in the same
line, but otherwise, it should be simply put before the
documented member.
