"Additionally, what are the thoughts of pub generating dartdocs for a package either with a separate command (pub docs) or (pub install docs), or perhaps as part of the 'pub install' (with an extra flag?), generating and dartdoc documentation for any packages you have as dependencies, not just your own package.

I would definitely like to have pub support doc generation (the proper command for running dartdoc is a bit finicky)."

To me there should be a two-part solution. First part is to generate dartdoc files for the package we own, that we are writing. Then another to be able to generate dartdoc files for packages we list as dependencies.

One option, we can fire an App Engine task when a package is uploaded, and a Dart VM running Compute Engine can pick up the task from App Engine's task queue, generate the docs, and post them Cloud Storage. It's so crazy, it just might work! :)
