	Im very interested in this from the code generation standpoint. I think
	whatever interface that is developed should have hooks for auto-generation
	of documentation for the API. Not only the classes/methods/attributes of what
	appear within the UML structure, but also all the extra parts that get added in
	by the code generation should appear too.  I'll try to integrate your stuff into 
	my interface if I can.
