Follow-up Comment #1, bug #59265 (project octave):
What happens for MEX functions in Matlab, where I think there is no way to
declare to Matlab the maximum number of outputs that may be produced?
I do agree that we could add this info to the DEFUN declarations for functions
that produce a maximum number of output values.
Also, we could declare the types of arguments that the built-in functions can
handle so they can be dispatched the same way as class methods. I started
working on that at one point, but did not make progress on actually tagging
the functions. See, for example the DEFUNs for svd, disp, fdisp, and display.
