Thanks for looking at this, Valerie. As Jon said in his comment, this PR is based on automated detection of @see and {@link} tags, and therefore not necessarily complete. 

That said I will add `@spec` for those cases you pointed out that I think are unambigous (see inline comments). Others that I think need more consideration and possibly updates of other parts of the doc comments I would prefer to be handled by the component maintainers.
