 - Formatting module for the remaining docstring formats (Sphinx, Epydoc), driven
   entirely by the same IR already used for Google and NumPy.
 
+### Finish the Sphinx/reST implementation
+
+The core Sphinx style (parameters, returns, raises, and the common admonitions) is supported, but full coverage of every Sphinx construct is not there yet. Currently, unrecognized constructs are passed through as plain paragraph text — never dropped, but not parsed into a structured section, so they don't wrap as fields and don't convert to a Google/NumPy equivalent. The following would close that gap:
+
+- Class attribute fields (`:ivar:`, `:cvar:`, `:var:` paired with `:vartype:`), mapped onto the same `Attributes` section Google and NumPy already expose, so class docstrings round-trip and convert like the other styles. Requires a new field-pairing path in the parser, an `Attributes` render path in the renderer, and a fix to the keyword translation tables (which currently fold Attributes into Parameters).
+- Keyword-only argument fields (`:keyword:` / `:kwarg:` with `:kwtype:`), aliased onto the existing parameter/type handling.
+- The broader set of admonition directives (`.. tip::`, `.. important::`, `.. caution::`, `.. attention::`, `.. hint::`, `.. danger::`, `.. error::`, `.. todo::`, `.. deprecated::`, `.. versionadded::`, `.. versionchanged::`), added to the directive-to-header map so their bodies format as named paragraphs. Headers without a Google/NumPy equivalent pass through unchanged on conversion.
+- Literal-body directives (`.. code-block::`, `.. math::`) — more involved, because their content must be preserved verbatim and never reflowed, and there is no clean equivalent in the current IR. Needs a dedicated literal-block IR node before it can be handled safely.
+
 ### Nice to have
 - Make sure the package can be used as a pre-commit hook.
 - LSP (Language Server Protocol) support, enabling real-time feedback on malformed

 - Formatting module for the remaining docstring formats (Sphinx, Epydoc), driven
   entirely by the same IR already used for Google and NumPy.
 
+### Finish the Sphinx/reST implementation
+
+The core Sphinx style (parameters, returns, raises, and the common admonitions) is supported, but full coverage of every Sphinx construct is not there yet. Currently, unrecognized constructs are passed through as plain paragraph text — never dropped, but not parsed into a structured section, so they don't wrap as fields and don't convert to a Google/NumPy equivalent. The following would close that gap:
+
+- Class attribute fields (`:ivar:`, `:cvar:`, `:var:` paired with `:vartype:`), mapped onto the same `Attributes` section Google and NumPy already expose, so class docstrings round-trip and convert like the other styles. Requires a new field-pairing path in the parser, an `Attributes` render path in the renderer, and a fix to the keyword translation tables (which currently fold Attributes into Parameters).
+- Keyword-only argument fields (`:keyword:` / `:kwarg:` with `:kwtype:`), aliased onto the existing parameter/type handling.
+- The broader set of admonition directives (`.. tip::`, `.. important::`, `.. caution::`, `.. attention::`, `.. hint::`, `.. danger::`, `.. error::`, `.. todo::`, `.. deprecated::`, `.. versionadded::`, `.. versionchanged::`), added to the directive-to-header map so their bodies format as named paragraphs. Headers without a Google/NumPy equivalent pass through unchanged on conversion.
+- Literal-body directives (`.. code-block::`, `.. math::`) — more involved, because their content must be preserved verbatim and never reflowed, and there is no clean equivalent in the current IR. Needs a dedicated literal-block IR node before it can be handled safely.
+
 ### Nice to have
 - Make sure the package can be used as a pre-commit hook.
 - LSP (Language Server Protocol) support, enabling real-time feedback on malformed
