Unlikely, I'd say.  Much of the remaining doctest holes are ones that
require more specialized knowledge, or are modules that are woefully
underdocumented but the authors are not as active any more.  The
reality is that there were some big pushes a year and a half or two
years ago, but since then energy for that has stalled.  Also, if you
look at the coverage since about a year ago, the slope is much smaller
- and perhaps the least-squares fit is better?

That isn't to say that a big push couldn't happen again.  But it would
take a concerted effort and leadership by someone to help pair talent
with missing doc, more than just outputs of grepping through sage -
coverage to identify where the coverage is missing.  Probably there
are also some older sage notebook files (not located in sagenb) that
could be dumped now to help that out?  #8803 is similar in vein, and
would be a nontrivial help.
