          Issue ID: 12995
           Summary: Include UDA in JSON output
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1

I would like to see user defined attributes for entities included in the JSON
output, as these attributes can include important information on how the
entities are used in the code.

Maybe something like this:

enum SomeEnum;
 (SomeEnum, "foo") int a;

{
  "kind" : "module",
  "file" : "testdoc3.d",
  "members" : [
   {
    "name" : "SomeEnum",
    "kind" : "enum",
    "line" : 1,
    "char" : 1
   },
   {
    "name" : "a",
    "kind" : "variable",
    "comment" : "   Blah\n",
    "line" : 6,
    "char" : 25,
    "deco" : "i",
    "attributes" : [
     {
      "kind" : "SomeEnum"
     },
     {
      "kind" : "string",
      "value" : "foo"
     }
     ]
   }
  ]
