Ka-Ping Yee can be thought to have categorised, in part:
>     1. dotted.references to classes or functions in other modules
>     2. dotted.references to class methods or attributes

Strangely enough, cases 1 and 2 would be the places I would consider using a
"don't cross reference this" markup. But given the problems of producing a
markup for the case where we *do* want to markup items (pace Eddy and me
arguing about "#"), I doubt we'll ever be able to agree on the idea of
having "anti-markup" (gosh, there's a concept - obviously it should be used
extensively in designing the documentation scheme for INTERCAL).

2 wheels good + 2 wheels good = 4 wheels good?
3 wheels good + 2 wheels good = 5 wheels better?
My views! Mine! Mine! (Unless Laser-Scan ask nicely to borrow them.)
