A fair amount... It's already supported as part of the documentation 
pipeline. To the point where it can be seamlessly integrated with 
QuickBook and BoostBook documentation. And there are already a few 
libraries that do just that. For example Boost.ProgramOptions library 
has this in the Jamfile.v2 to build the docs:

===
import toolset ;
toolset.using doxygen ;

boostbook program_option : program_options.xml ;

doxygen autodoc
     : [ glob ../../../boost/program_options/*.hpp ] ;
===

The result of which you can see at 
<http://www.boost.org/doc/html/program_options.html>.

Help is welcome. You might have to directly contact library authors, by 
posting a more prominent message, to get them to accept the help.
