Just to be clear: I wasn't going to add any declarations.  I was just
going to make it easier for other people to add them.  :- doc was one
example motivation.

I like :- doc, but I doubt it will be a required thing.  We might use it
(or something like it) in the library to generate documentation one day,
but it wouldn't become part of the language.  A tool in the extras is
probably more like it.
