I remember over a decade ago seeing a grad student project with a very straightforward and very clever idea: extending JavaDocs based on code snippets of actual use (to address the common pattern problem in Java code that you often get an instance of an object not by direct construction, but by calling a factory function or singleton getter somewhere). Kicking myself that I didn't see this day coming.
