Luckily in my case, the "Word:" part is already generated inside a ddoc 
macro, so it'll be just as well hidden.

What I'd kinda like to do is put together a D doc generator that uses, 
uhh, probably markdown. But still with some sort of basic (but 
better-looking than ddoc) macro system, because link URLs can still 
REALLY clutter up even markdown source and make it unreadable (which is 
why I actually ended up converting the changelog for at least one of my 
projects from markdown to ddox.) Not a high enough priority for me now 
though :(
