Maybe it'd be of value to have a quick "code stripper" that takes away all the annotations, plus any other junk/framing that you're not interested in, and gives you something you can browse in a text editor?

If you need to preprocess your source code to make it suitable for human consumption something is very wrong with your language design. I can't believe you're seriously suggesting this.
