The best thing you could do is to write up a HOWTO. Grant can review it with you, but once that's done we'll post it on the developer resources page as you suggested.

Is there something I can do to help guarantee that it does get documented?
Anybody specific I should contact?

It seems to me like a convenient place is probably somewhere on the website
