README.md also may be missing usage information that's in Commentary. 
I've checked, and it's actually the case with all packages I'm 
maintaining (except one, out of 6), whether I'm the author or not.

I've mentioned the issues in which is was discussed, feel free to 
participate.

But if Melpa is going to generate readme.txt from the Commentary, and 
ELPA - from README.md, I'd hate to be forced to keep (more than a bare 
minimum of) duplicate information there.

Take company's README.md, for example. It's barren, but Commentary in 
company.el contains what you'd expect from a description. I'd like to 
keep things that way there.
