      It would be good to add more metadata to the generated API files.

      * "Description" ... a stylized description of the contents of the page, for possible use by tools that might want to filter the set of pages. Of most use would be a description on the pages that contain the specifications for the declaration of an item.

      * "Generator" ... not just "javadoc" but also an indication of the part of javadoc that generated the part, to help identify the different "kinds" of pages in an API bundle.
