I think the best way to explain the usage of a feature are *working*
code-examples.
Maybe it's possible to have a special unit-test block named such as
'example'.
The compiler can completely ignore such sections or just syntax check
them, or ... .

For doc generation they are just taken as they are and put into (or
linked to) the documentation.

It may be even possible for the doc generator to compile and run these
samples, so they become some kind of unit test and their possible output
can be part of the documentation.

Just an idea that comes to my mind
