[SciPy-User] Suggestion for numpy.genfromtxt documentation

All,
You'll be happy to learn that I am working on some additional docs for
genfromtxt. I introduced some new features (`filling_values`,
`skip_footer`), deprecated some others (`missing` should be
`missing_values`, `skip_row` should be `skip_header`), modified how
some of the arguments worked (`missing_values` doesn't have to be a
dictionary any more), to such an extent that it may get overwhelming
for a new user. Moreover, trying to fit every single bit of
information in the docstring of the function is maybe a tad counter-
productive.
So, expect some kind of draft in a few days. I'm not sure where to put
it yet (probably right in `numpy/doc`) nor to how to point to it. I'll
let our doc specialists decide what to do.
Cheers
P.
