In the previous go-round on this topic, I seem to recall some concern
about side-effects, to wit reducing the readability of the comments for
ordinary non-doxygen code browsing. I'd be quite against taking any
noticeable hit in that direction.
A quick look through the doxygen manual doesn't make it sound too
invasive, but I am worried about how well it will coexist with pgindent.
It seems both tools think they can dictate the meaning of the characters
immediately after /* of a comment block.
