Intellisense tooltip fails to show inherited documentation with inline inheritdoc path

This issue has been moved from a ticket on Developer Community.

I'm really rejoicing in Intellisense support for inheritdoc tags. However, there seems to be a combination of features which are not currently supported.

I have been authoring inheritdoc comments adhering to the SHFB documentation of inline inheritance rules, including some occurrences using a path query.

Intellisense should correctly show such inherited documentation.

However, Intellisense doesn't show any inherited documentation.

This sample originates from the SHFB documentation.

/// <summary>
/// A base class from which to inherit documentation
/// </summary>
/// <remarks>
/// <para>These remarks are for the base class.</para>
///
/// <para>This information applies to all classes that derive from
/// <see cref="BaseInheritDoc"/>:
/// <list type="bullet">
/// <item><description>Point #1.</description></item>
/// <item><description>Point #2.</description></item>
/// <item><description>Point #3.</description></item>
/// </list>
/// </para>
/// </remarks>
/// <conceptualLink target="86453FFB-B978-4A2A-9EB5-70E118CA8073" />
public class BaseInheritDoc {
}

/// <summary>
/// This is a derived class with inherited documentation.
/// </summary>
/// <remarks>This will inherit just the last &lt;para&gt; tag from
/// the base class's &lt;remarks&gt; tag:
/// <inheritdoc path="para[last()]" />
/// <inheritdoc path="/remarks/para[last()]" />
/// </remarks>
/// <conceptualLink target="86453FFB-B978-4A2A-9EB5-70E118CA8073" />
public class DerivedClassWithInheritedDocs : BaseInheritDoc
{
}

I have doubled the inheritdoc tag in order to outline a work around.

The current behavior is shown in this screenshot: !
