Something that I would find useful for a tool like AdaBrowse, is the 
ability to provide indexes on specific entries in the comments.

For example, let's say I put a "Portability issues" in somes headers.
When porting my soft, I find akward an error prone to "grep" this field. 
I would appreciate to have an index in the generated pages that provide 
me with a fast acces to all those entry.

Another cool feature would be to defines special fields that contains a 
list of references. For exemple requirements or bug Id, like in:

-- Requirements: req_234, req_456, req_007, req_098,
--               req_937

And then to have the cross reference generated between each req and 
sources where it is referenced.

I am pretty sure that a lot of project develop this kind of had hoc tools.
