Hi,
I have the following code:
package object graph {  /** A graph where nodes, edges and links between these can be checked with instances to see if they are in these    * collections.   */  type QueryableMembershipGraph[G, V, E] = Graph[G, V, E] {
    /** The collection type is an indicator function. */     type Col[A] <: A => Boolean
  }}
This compiles but does not scaladoc. It bails with "error: only declarations allowed here" pointing to the doc on Col. Is this an oversight or intended behaviour? Depending, I need to submit a bug report either to scaladoc or the intellij scala plugin :)

Re: scaladoc of type members
The concept of scaladoc for "members" of a type is very strange to me. A type is just an alias. In this case, it is an alias to Graph[G, V, E] with the structural type { type Col[A] <: A => Boolean }, so it doesn't make sense to put a scaladoc on that.
