I think that's a great idea.  Especially if it's able to be searchable. 
It would be a great supplement to detailed docs.

I'd like to get something up similar to what they have at www.php.net,
where almost every object/method/property is available through searching
or directory.

Sorry, I don't know where to host it.  Is there a place that offers free
mysql accounts?
