Yes, some kind of popup is what I remember. Looking at the HTML output for the docs, the SGML comments don't appear the HTML, so I think we need to write a Perl or shell script to match all the SGML <listitem> comment text with the HTML <li> text, and insert tooltip text with links for every one of them.
