New description:

 The current Web API documentation source does not cleanly build with  the
 version of doxygen that we're using (1.8.0).

 In addition, the documentation itself is missing in some parts

  * Documentation of the WebApp classes (that are wrapped by the proxy
 classes in the the OSGeo.MapGuide.Web.dll assembly)
  * Some internal classes are being leaked out. Need to compare with the
 exposed classes of the .net assemblies to determine which classes need to
 be hidden.
  * Lots of Ptr<T> forward declarations appearing under "variables"

 ~~If you look at the generated Web API documentation for 2.4 and compare
 it to the "published" 2.0 version on mapguide.osgeo.org you can see there
 are some stark differences:~~

  * ~~The lack of a navigation tree~~
  * ~~The lack of a TOC~~

 ~~The build process already warns about such issues, so something is
 definitely amiss here.~~
