[Roxygen-devel] support for \section tag in Rd2roxygen ?

I'm in the process of trying to convert the over 140 pages of
documentation for the PerformanceAnalytics package from hand-coded .Rd
files to roxygen2

I've previously gotten some assistance here with regard to aliases and
multiple functions in the same file, and with some small changes to the
source documents have made significant progress.  (i.e. Rd2roxygen can
now run to completion)

I'm now noticing that the documentation produced by Rd2roxygen is
significantly shorter than the original.

So far, Ive been able to identify that it appears that Rd2roxygen fails
to parse \section tags completely.  There are no errors or warnings, but
all of the text contained in \section tags in the original Rd files is
completely missing from the converted roxygen comments.

Am I missing something, or am I correct that it is Rd2roxygen?

Regards,
