Annotating arguments and binding tool compatibility

I notice that the Qt 4 bindings generator expects DBus method _arguments_ to
be annotated for complex types so it can generate methods with legal
signatures; however dbus-binding-tool cannot cope with an annotation tag
inside an arg tag. This makes upstreaming changes to introspection XML to
help Qt 4 impossible.
Would it be acceptable to clarify the "Introspection Data Format" of the spec
to allow arguments to be annotated, and to fix dbus-binding-tool so that it at
least ignores these annotations, assuming it does not currently have a use for
them?
