I'll add these for v2.

I'll add at least something to the implementations, too.

We've mostly kept the full documentation in the headers so they can be
found by people who only have headers installed, but also because the
headers tend to be smaller, and sphinx runs slowly enough as it is
without needing a bigger file to parse.

Fair enough, I've tentatively got rid of the underscores for v2.
