Everton, maybe you don't know that LCL documentation is not inside the
pascal source code but in separate XML files, which are kind of a
database.
You can contribute for them easily by editing the files and creating a
patch. The difficult part is actually writing a good quality and
consistent documentation.

DoDi's idea for a new XML tag for notes is well justified IMO. You can
write comments and todo-items in pascal source code, why can't you
write them in document (XML) source files?
