Sure!

Okay, note that `checkdoc' don't say that, nor does the
byte-compiler ...

But thanks, you mean like this?

;; Version: 3.3.6
;;
;;; Commentary:
;;
;; The `wrap-search' package offers non-incremental search.
;; It shows hitss - hits and only hits.
;;
;; `wrap-search' searches forward by default, but it wraps
;; and continues up and until the search start position if
;; necessary. This is so one doesn't have to wonder if the
;; target is north or south in the buffer.
;;
;; The philosophy is that `wrap-search' mostly shouldn't be
;; used for searching - that is possible as well, of course,
;; using the same command - rather, it is used to quickly
;; navigate a buffer.
;;
;; To use the package without keyboard shortcuts isn't
;; recommended. Instead, do for example
;;
;;   (global-set-key "\C-s" #'wrap-search)
;;   (global-set-key "\C-r" #'wrap-search-again)
