Well, putting stuff into IR is different from usual doc-work, but not
impossible.
I created
#5518 Document bound-details (sub-)properties in line-spanner-cc for IR
https://sourceforge.net/p/testlilyissues/issues/5518/

Patch is up for review here:
https://codereview.appspot.com/560670043/

Descriptions are mostly taken from NR.
Though, I'm not a native speaker. Any suggestions for better wording,
grammar, syntax etc is welcome.

I think with your google-account you can log in there and do any
inline-comments you wish.

Attached, an excerpt from internals.pdf showing how it looks after patch.

Cheers,
