Thanks! I pushed a small change to remove the custom admonition syntax. We have an extension to try to support that, but we aren't quite ready to use it, yet.

I don't think this is ultimately the way we'll want to document this attribute. Generally we try to avoid talking too much about the specifics of rustc, particularly nightly-specific things. I think for now it is OK to move forward with this (in particular, to fix toolstate).

Moving forward, we should probably consider this attribute to be deprecated if it isn't going to be doing anything useful. (Unless this change is temporary.)
