Improve `const` generated docs

I am not sure if this is even possible at the library level. If it is not, feel free to close this issue.
Issue
If you are writing a library and you have something like:
pub const MY_LENGTH: f64 = 1.0 * 5.0
this will generate documentation using cargo doc
like:
pub const MY_LENGTH: f64= _; // 5f64
If you are using uom
to have a constant length like:
pub const MY_LENGTH: Length = Length {
dimension: PhantomData,
units: PhantomData,
value: 5.0,
};
this will generate documentation like:
pub const MY_LENGTH: Length;
Suggestion
It would be great if the generated doc had an extra comment line to show what the numeric value of the constant is. Something like:
pub const MY_LENGTH: Length; // 5f64 meters
Or anything along those lines.
Are you referring to output generated by cargo doc
? If so that's not something a library can control and you'd need to look into reporting the issue there.
