Greg asked:

I have a couple use-cases:

1.] Creating generic documentation for the associated element(s) -
uses in schema and XSLT. I know schema already has a documentation
mechanism that is XML, for XSLT there is no standard documentation
mechnism although I have seen that there are a few around.
2.] Adding some structured comment such as a change history.

Appreciate that this could either be put directly in XML (perhaps in a
different namespace) or parsed from standard comments.
