I think the problem was that I couldn't figure out how to make Sphinx do
cross references within inline preformatted text. And I thought that was
less important than fixing up the struct presentation that I'm not all
too happy about currently. See [1] first. I don't think we need to have
both the definition and members. It's just wasted vertical space.

I'd suggest we drop the definition altogether, and have the members list
contain the member types, ideally with cross-references. If that means
having to use normal font instead of monospace, I'd go with it anyway.

Thoughts?

BR,
Jani.
