Ah, no. That's because I ran it against object.di, which doesn't have 
ddoc comments at all. I don't generate cross-references to undocumented 
symbols.

I uploaded a new version which I ran against an object.di which has 
empty ddocs for everything. Now you can see there are some 
cross-references. (if you find some is missing, please tell me).

I don't think there's need for the mangled name. It's also more natural 
to give a link like foo.html?Some.Class than a mangled name.
