Feature Request: Show docstrings in collapsed forms #323

I don't know how feasible this is and this may be a contentious change, but it would be nice that if when you collapsed a function, the docstring would still be visible.

I like to collapse-all in a namespace to get a high level view of the functions available and docstrings are an important part of that. The work around is to put the docstring in a comment, but that is a duplication of content.

Hmm, interesting idea - I believe it should be possible, at least technically. I'll take a look and then we can decide if it's a good idea separately.
