Indeed it has none, good point.

Since I just remade a 180-pages tutorial on D templates in markdown without much trouble, I guess documentation and tutorial are different beasts. I felt no need for macros, really, but I can see how they are useful for Ddoc pages.

Note that markdown was crafted to be readable by itself, even though its final goal is to be rendered in HTML. Ddoc has no such compulsion (some macros are a bit obscure for me when I read documentation in raw form)

You know, I always felt Ddoc was a strange sublanguage bolted onto D. An elegant solution would be to have macros be D code, but I have nothing to propose here.
