I'm wondering if a TiddlyWiki might be a nice way to navigate the
documentation. So you'd have one 'tiddler' (Wiki item) per block and with
navigation being non-linear could have multiple blocks from various
categories open at once.

http://www.tiddlywiki.com/

TiddlyWiki is also easily extensible via macros and plug-ins, and some
additional possibilities might be:

- Macros for searching for blocks
- A doxygen plug-in for importing data. Would need to look into this but I
know there are plug-ins for other data sources, which might at least be a
start.
- In the future generating python code. E.g. A templating plug-in is under
development that is currently being used to generate static HTML output.

And as this would be realised as a single HTML file makes offline viewing of
the documentation simple.

If of interest I'd be happy to look into this. I'm neither a doxygen nor
TiddlyWiki expert, but have access to the latter and might be a nice way to
learn more about GNU Radio architecture.
