-Internal links are not smart enough about cross-file linking.
-=============================================================
-
-There are two main problems with internal linking as it works now:
-
-1. The links are resolved relative to the directory of the file being processed
-   when they should be resolved relative to the root output directory.
-   
-   For example, consider ``@org id1`` defined in ``dir/file1.src``, then
-   referenced in ``dir/file2.src`` in this manner: ``[link](jlp://id1``. The
-   url written in ``dir/file2.html`` is ``dir/file1.html#id1``. However, when
-   the page is viewed, this url is interpreted relative to the directory of the
-   current page. So if the docs live at ``file:///docs`` then the url will
-   resolve to ``file:///docs/dir/dir/file1.src#id1`` instead of
-   ``file:///docs/dir/file1.html#id1``.
-
-2. The links do substitute the ``html`` suffix to the file names in place of the
-   files' suffixes. In the above example note that the actual urls end in
-   ``.src`` like the original input files, but the expected url ends in
-   ``.html``.

-Modify `org` behavior to include simple anchors.
-================================================
-
-Currently JLP supports at most one `org` directive per block which identifies the block.
-It would be useful to support multiple `org` directives within a block, particularly
-when there is a large block that may have many interesting internal targets. Maybe the
-`org` directive should be handled differently when it is used multiple times within a
-block. This would be discovered in the generator parse phase and we could change the
-LinkAnchor type at that time. During the parse phase we emit the new type of anchors
-as `<a id="link-name"/>` into the document. We would also change our search for block
-ids to inly look for the single-occurance type of `orgs`.

+Implement special-purpose Markdown processor. This way it can be intelligent
+about connecting seperated doc-blocks that should be a unit, can process thing
+like link references on a whole-document basis, and can be more intelligent
+about indentation, line numbers for doc blocks.
+
+Consider building up common, generic AST nodes for code parsers so that most of
+the work of integrating a new language is already done in the common code,
+leaving only the very specific behavior to be implemented. For starters:
+
+CodeUnit
+:   Supports things like classes in OOP, modules, even files if that is a
+    common organizational unit for the language.
+
+Callable
+:   Supports methods, functions, subroutines, closures, anything that takes
+    parameters and returns a value.
+
+Structure
+:   May be a useful abstraction for pure data objects (Erlang record
+    definitions, C/C++ unions and structs, enums, etc.).
+
+Make Directives completely configurable. Do not hard-code an enumeration of
+possible values. Make the actual directive text just another field on the class.
+This allows language-specific implementations to extend the built-in Directives
+easily. It also has the benefit of allowing unknown or invalid directives
+through the parser without causing the source file to fail to parse. This gives
+us a better way to warn the user of unknown directives. To this end it may be
+good to assemble a list of defined directives at runtime, but this would not
+happen in the parser itself.
+
+Add back the @doc directive to return to private implementation notes within a
+block that has so far been marked public with an @api directive.
