I've sent not one, but *three* patches for "review" successively. If
by "review" you mean "Rietveld", then no, there's no way in hell I'll
upload a patch that affects more than 100 files. That's why I didn't
upload the very first patch in the first place.

As Trevor said, it was more about reverting things than anything else.

Carl: I do get your point, and you're right that @file entries that
contain a @var or something like that shouldn't necessarily be treated
as "long" entries. Please don't think your objection was disregarded
at all; I promise I'll have a thorough look once the new docs are
online, and adjust things (I mean, submit patches :) if needed.

Cheers,
Valentin.
