[SciPy-dev] Module level docstrings

Looking through the code for both numpy and scipy, there are lots of cases
where modules have header comments of the form:

#
# This is the foobar module for doing stuff. <insert useful information
about foobar here>
#


Rather than having these blocks as comments, would it be worth changing them
to be docstrings so they could be parsed by tools like pydoc and doxygen?

Cheers,
