`(require 'cl)' makes sure cl.el (Common Lisp-like functions) are
loaded.  `cl' is just a symbol, and if it's not in the `features' list
then the corresponding file is loaded.  Are you looking for some
method of attaching per-file documentation?  Sounds like a slick idea,
but not supported by the current `require'/`provide' mechanism
(AFAIK).
