    yep :), e.g.:

    * class::method:    Description of Class::Method.   (line  12)

    but we could try to use some heuristics like, for example, matching
    a colon only when space follows it (":[ \t]+"), and so when it is not inside
    an identifier.

That might be a good idea.  In theory it is an incompatible change,
but in practice this incompatibily may be very rare.
