Javadoc 1.4 introduced the -linksource option, which generates an
HTML version of the source code that's linked from the javadoc.
We should use -linksource in SAND. This will give us drill-down
documentation that starts at the SAND overview root and goes all
the way to the source code.

    Sounds like a great improvement. Looking forward to it.

    Might be good to be able to switch this off, if you are changing
    the source a lot locally and don't want the overhead. We should
    give some thought to making these options switchable in our
    build.

    Ant's Javadoc task doesn't support the linksource switch yet. I submitted a patch to the ant folk (under bug 11569), but somehow I doubt they'll get around to accepting it.
