Incidentally:

Let's not introduce further instances of the anti-pattern where the
``doc:'' marker in DEFVAR constructs is aligned with its opening paren,
rather than two columns into the word DEFVAR itself.  Generally, this
deprives you of latitude for the first line of the doc string, for you
are either compelled to contravene the 80 column limit or to render that
line exceptionally laconic, both of which are ultimately
counterproductive.

TIA.
