This seems like a really slick idea.

Something I've always wanted is better multi-language documentation support. kLike suppose I have a c++ project that is integrated to python with pybind11. The python bindings may be the highlevel interface, but sphinx doesn't make it easy (as far as I know) to integrate python documentation generated from doc strings with c++ doxygen style briefs, especially in a way that lets you navigate seamlessly between the two.

I wonder if you have considered a use-case like this?




Definitely want to enable this use case better. I think it will be quite easy to have a "you're viewing your project, you search for a function named 'curl fetch' and it turns up both the Python and C++ method named that"-type experience.

Linking between the two may be tougher (showing you with confidence they're related), but maybe possible for us to do something there, not sure yet.
