Research direction

Start by investigating the existing tag-directive support and plugin generator behavior, then compare the two proposed options: generator-provided markup or Darkfish-specific markup. Clarify how public, private, and protected should be represented and which documentation generators must support them. Done means the design is decided and the selected implementation works consistently.
