I second this.

I have a good many packages which come with rather big examples, in addition
to ordinary documentation.

In fact, for some of the Java packages, and example may actually be an entire
(web)application, complete with documentation of its own.

If this gets ratified, I'd also recommend we try to refactor the existing
packages with 'doc' keywords, albeit slowly, since I know many of those
include examples when doc is enabled.
