reStructuredText (.rst) text files not displaying content #53
There is a problem with reStructuredText files (.rst) not displaying in the code browser. reStructuredText is just a text format, I know it's not markdown but they are just plain text (like markdown) so the content should at least be displayed if it cant be rendered. Normally what happens is parts of the file are simply omitted. I think what really should happen, at the least, is that they are treated as normal text files with all the content shown.
The reason OSS projects use .rst files is because it's more or less like Markdown but it can be used to generated structured documentation with TOC/Index/Search etc with zero extra cost. I'm not asking that you guys render it, but at least display the content in the repo viewer.
FWIW I'm having this issue currently with RST files not showing content listed with .. file:: directives. I know it's not a directive defined in the rst specs, but I would at least hope to see the raw information.

toctree directive is NOT the directive in reStructuredText specification.
Sphinx defines the directive.

This should be fixed with our latest updates on docutils.
