Sure, but please don't skip the actual documentation either lol

Sometimes I just want a list of inputs and outputs and I don't want to read through the source to find them.

I wonder how many perfect plugins I've passed over for the lack of decent documentation by now

Often, the documentation explains the why... The code (without documenting comments of course) only every tells you how...
