Definitely sounds like something I can track down and address (since I'm
experienced with xslt, doxygen, etc). At the very least I should be able
to spot the worst blockers.

One step might be to get anything that is truly undocumented replaced
with doxygen todo tags so we get a build without warnings but can still
get a list of items to fix fully at some later time.
