Quoting the commit message of

"tdf#33209: Context-sensitive help for extensions in otherwise HTML-help
cases":

"When extensions bring along help content (in the form of .xhp files), that was
completely unavailable in --without-help (i.e., defering to online HTML help)
and --with-help=html (i.e., displaying the new offline HTML help in a browser)
builds.  (Merely extended tooltips brought along by extensions would work in
those builds.)

"With this change, at least context-sensitive help (i.e., pressing F1 in an
extension's dialog) will be shown. Although not integrated with the rest of the
(browser-based HTML) help, but using LO's own old help viewer.  (Which will
then of course only offer the combined help content of all the installed
extensions, not any help content provided by LO itself.  Thus, links from
extensions' help content to LO help content will not work.)

"This is only a cheap stopgap.  If an extension brings along help content other
than context-sensitive help (which is reachable by pressing F1 in the
respective context), there is no easy way for the user to reach it.  (That
includes help pages listed in an extension's help.tree, and index entries.  See
the commit message of 4a0ca73c31990568bf20a1c3f0906c3a5770a38e 'Add some help
content to test-passive.oxt' for an overview of what help conent an extension
can provide.)"

So I wouldn't consider this issue satisfyingly fixed.  But I at least won't do
any further work on this issue at least in the foreseeable future, esp. not for
the upcoming LO 6.1.
