Thanks!  In general I find it is easiest to read and write
documentation out of line for this sort of thing.  That way, even
after the documentation grows obsolete it doesn't seem so out of
place.

See Documentation/technical/api-strbuf.txt, api-sigchain, and
api-allocation-growing for some nice (up-to-date) examples.

In particular:

Could you give a quick stripped-down usage example?

On the contrary, simple API variants don't sound so bad to me,
once the fundamentals are in good shape.
