The parenthesised version is more regular -- the keywords-at-the-start
thing feels pretty hackish.  (And means that eldoc doesn't give correct
info.)

But we do use the keyword-at-the-start approach in
`define-derived-mode', for instance, so perhaps we could here, too.
Putting keywords inside a () is pretty unusual syntax, anyway.

So I'm open to unify them in this direction...

Does eldoc have support for this kind of oddball syntax, by any chance?
