OK. let's try to take a step back. You're suggesting that we need
2 places where we put different info (one being the Commentary: and
another being the README.*).
I just don't see it. If you want to put info in the README, then you
can put all the relevant info in the README, and the Commentary: can
be trivial. And vice versa.

Why? Why not move the info from company.el to README.md (where it can
be made prettier while you're at it)?
