Perhaps it has come up before, but what do you think of adding ddoc comments for contracts? (in/out/invariant)

Contracts are between the code and the user after all, so it makes sense to document these in certain cases. It might also enable some uber IDE for D in the future to display contracts if available on right clicking a symbol or whatever.

I think it'd be darn nifty.  Of course, I also think there needs to be a DDoc switch to change the "protection level" of output.  Public-only is fine for most cases, but sometimes I would like to have it output /everything/ for my own quick-referance purposes.
