Description

Given the following service method defined in thrift IDL,

list<string> my_method(
1: string arg1,
3: map<binary, map<binary, binary>> arg2,
)

I would expect the html doc generated to reflect that arg is a string argument while elements in arg2 are of "binary" type.
Currently HTML generator prints "string" type for both cases, misleading the API users.
