Thanks!

Interesting. I'm not that familiar with the widget types, but the reason 
I
chose 'editable-field is because 'text seems to *duplicate* the content,
which is much more annoying for a multi-line doc string than a short 
name.
I'll attach a screen-shot -- this is the effect when it's
(widget-create 'text ...). [Or maybe this is a widget bug? I'm using git
master from earlier today.]

When it's 'editable-field as in my patch, you are correct that RET 
leaves
the field, but C-j or M-j will insert a newline, and M-q actually seems 
to
work too (though it doesn't preserve the first line of the doc string 
like
it would in a doc string in elisp mode).

If there's a fix for duplicating the string with a text widget, I'll be
happy with it! Thanks.
