+        #
+        # === Common Options
+        #
+        # * <tt>:push_scope => false</tt> specifies this method tracer should not
+        #   keep track of the caller; it will not show up in controller breakdown
+        #   pie charts.
+        # * <tt>:metric => false</tt> specifies that no metric will be recorded.
+        #   Instead the call will show up in transaction traces as well as traces
+        #   shown in Developer Mode.
+        #
+        # === Uncommon Options
+        #
+        # * <tt>:scoped_metric_only => true</tt> indicates that the unscoped metric
+        #   should not be recorded.  Normally two metrics are potentially created
+        #   on every invocation: the aggregate method where statistics for all calls
+        #   of that metric are stored, and the "scoped metric" which records the
+        #   statistics for invocations in a particular scope--generally a controller
+        #   action.  This option indicates that only the second type should be recorded.
+        #   The effect is similar to <tt>:metric => false</tt> but in addition you
+        #   will also see the invocation in breakdown pie charts.
+        # * <tt>:deduct_call_time_from_parent => false</tt> indicates that the method invocation
+        #   time should never be deducted from the time reported as 'exclusive' in the
+        #   caller.  You would want to use this if you are tracing a recursive method
+        #   or a method that might be called inside another traced method.
+        # * <tt>:code_header</tt> and <tt>:code_footer</tt> specify ruby code that
+        #   is inserted into the tracer before and after the call.
+        # * <tt>:force = true</tt> will ensure the metric is captured even if called inside
+        #   an untraced execution call.  (See NewRelic::Agent#disable_all_tracing)
+        #
+        # === Overriding the metric name
+        #
+        # +metric_name_code+ is a string that is eval'd to get the
+        # name of the metric associated with the call, so if you want to
+        # use interpolaion evaluated at call time, then single quote
+        # the value like this:
+        #
+        #     add_method_tracer :foo, 'Custom/#{self.class.name}/foo'
+        #
+        # This would name the metric according to the class of the runtime
+        # intance, as opposed to the class where +foo+ is defined.
+        #
+        # If not provided, the metric name will be <tt>Custom/ClassName/method_name</tt>.
+        #
+        # === Examples
+        #
+        # Instrument +foo+ only for custom views--will not show up in transaction traces or caller breakdown graphs:
+        #
+        #     add_method_tracer :foo, :push_scope => false
+        #
+        # Instrument +foo+ just for transaction traces only:
+        #
+        #     add_method_tracer :foo, :metric => false
+        #
+        # Instrument +foo+ so it shows up in transaction traces and caller breakdown graphs
+        # for actions:
+        #
+        #     add_method_tracer :foo
+        #
+        # which is equivalent to:
