I agree that it may be premature to think about implementation details
of how docstrings are stored etc.  However, I would like to ensure that
any discussion of the design of ways-to-choose-an-action-at-point
include self-documentation and self-discovery in the desiderata.

Perhaps this goes without saying, in which case please ignore this
message.  However, it's too important to be left to chance.
