Feature Request - Have methods for structs to be collapsed by default (with an arrow next to the type def to reveal them) in the Index section of godocs.
Reasoning: Some packages include multiple structs with methods. For example, https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/ has Accuracy, ErrNaN, Float, Int, Rat, and RoundingMode with the Float, Int, Rat types have many methods. If the methods were collapsed by default, I could click to expand the Int type to look for the method I'm looking up. This is particularly useful for protos that define RPC endpoints. I'm currently working with a proto that defines 21 Request/Response protos where each has at least 10 methods associated with them. When I'm looking at that godoc, there's really only one struct that I want to look at. The major sections (Overview, Index, etc) already have an arrow to collapse the section. Currently: type Accuracy <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#Accuracy> func (i Accuracy) String() string <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#Accuracy.String>type ErrNaN <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#ErrNaN> func (err ErrNaN) Error() string <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#ErrNaN.Error>type Float <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#Float> func NewFloat(x float64) *Float <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#NewFloat> func ParseFloat(s string, base int, prec uint, mode RoundingMode) (f *Float, b int, err error) <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#ParseFloat> func (z *Float) Abs(x *Float) *Float <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#Float.Abs> func (x *Float) Acc() Accuracy <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#Float.Acc> func (z *Float) Add(x, y *Float) *Float <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#Float.Add> func (x *Float) Append(buf []byte, fmt byte, prec int) []byte <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#Float.Append> func (x *Float) Cmp(y *Float) int <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#Float.Cmp> func (z *Float) Copy(x *Float) *Float <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#Float.Copy> func (x *Float) Float32() (float32, Accuracy) <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#Float.Float32> func (x *Float) Float64() (float64, Accuracy) <https://golang.org/pkg/math/big/#Float.Float64> ...
