If the introduction were "/*rST" instead of "/**", would we have
consensus? It gives us a path to let people intermix kernel-doc and

If you want to allow two syntaxes for documentation comments (current
kernel-doc and pure reStructuredText with just the comment markers and
indentation removed) I think the natural first step would be to modify
kernel-doc the perl script to support that. It would probably even be
trivial.
My 2cent: to tag the markup of the documentation, in python they
use a variable named __docformat__ [PEP-258] / e.g.:
__docformat__ = "restructuredtext en"

Cross referencing will be problematic, I think.
