Description
I was hoping to get some insight on how to document filters as they are applied in a function. I'm referring to the use of the apply_filter() function inside a WordPress function, not for the use of the add_filter() function.
I thought to use something like one of these, but wanted some input on whether either was complete enough.
* @uses apply_filters() for 'wp_admin_bar_class' providing 'WP_Admin_Bar' as the default class. * @note Adds the 'wp_admin_bar_class' filter to allow changing the default 'WP_Admin_Bar' class. * @link http://codex.wordpress.org/index.php?title=Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/wp_admin_bar_class
(Note: The link doesn't work yet. it is established from the Plugin API/Filter Reference)
I tend to look at inline docs as I use them (to update the codex and to research solutions) and that may not fit with other uses. I would rather not have to go back (too many times) because the my standard was useless to other users.
Thanks,

Coding standrads have no spec on how to document them that far.
The current usage isn't normlized either.
I suggest to do as it suits you while monitoring this ticket for the time being.
