While phpDocumentor can ignore elements it does not understand, that
information would be useful to maintain, so some modification of it's
parsing would be appropriate. But I was referring more to the other
proposals for adding essentially the same information, and how that
might be hidden in non-docblock comment packets.

But currently some tools are lagging behind even current changes in PHP
and phpDocumentor does not get everything right already. I can't get a
clean set of documents currently with either the original version or the
Mk2 version of phpDocumentor on code that has produced clean documents
in the past. Just another area that needs time spending to work out what
now need updating which does not affect the working code.
