suggestion: latex formula tags (f$,f[,f{) should imply verbatim

It's really annoying when you try to do stuff like this:
/*!
  @brief Delta torque due to delta joint position.
  This function computes \f$S_2(q, \dot{q}, \ddot{q})\delta q\f$.
*/

but that "\dot" in the formula causes doxygen to complain:
Warning: reached end of file while inside a dot block!
...and then the documentation gets hosed.

I don't know how best to fix this -- if I try to manually stick 
\verbatim in the fomula:
/*!  \f$\verbatim S_2(q, \dot{q}, \ddot{q})\delta q\endverbatim\f$  */
then somehow latex gets ahold of the verbatim tag and has throws its own 
error.  So perhaps the formula is already verbatim, and just the \dot 
command is getting through somehow?

Anyway, a work around would be nice if I'm missing something.

Thanks

PS I just updated my patch for bug 162968 to work with 1.4.4:
  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=162968
If there's any feedback on that, I'm the one to talk to, though probably 
should do it through the bugzilla page.
