I wonder if it would be possible to have a docstring for the ternary operator (`…?`). Currently help mode for `?` gives the [general help intro](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/51484175dee4b0566b270fd62356b1198afdba22/base/docs/basedocs.jl#L27). Would it make sense to special-case `?` and shoehorn eg the following in there: > `a ? b : c` > > Short form for conditionals, also known as the ternary operator. Equivalent to > ```julia > if a > b > else > c > end
