This is a good idea.

I think if we are going to tokenize the file, we could leverage those tokens
to perform the procedure (similar to the tokenization of the source files
for RDoc).

Tokenization will be needed for other things as well (autocompletion, etc)
so several editor capabilities will be dependent on it.  The key is speed.
