IMO, showing the values in parentheses makes the description potentially confusing. E.g., for this description: "Only if wider than window (long)" I needed to stare at it for some time before I realized that the "(long)" part shows the underlying Lisp value. AFAIK, we don't normally show values in parentheses like that. Why is it a good idea in this case (or at all)?
