config lazydoc enhancements
Reported by bahuvrihi | July 22nd, 2008 @ 03:07 PM
Configuration documentation should be able to specify the short and arg_name values. A plausible format is:
config :key, 'value' # (s) ARGNAME - description
config :key, 'value' # (s) description
config :key, 'value' # ARGNAME - description
config :key, 'value' # description
To do this would require evaluation of the lazydoc BEFORE use in the command line (performance hit) since the short is required for optparse. The argname could be put off, in principle because it gets formatted during --help... the trick would be to put a placeholder like desc into the config argv.

I don't think this is that good of an idea, simply because of the performance hit. It's inconsistent with the ideas behind Configurable and Lazydoc... that you only load the documentation when you need to view it and all that you need to USE the config is already contained in the config.
