oh and of course HTML help content effectively requires first ditching
the current built-in Writer-based help browser, since Writer can only
handle ~HTML3 or so and if people can just write HTML5 directly they
surely don't want to be restricted to a subset with no tool to verify
they didn't get it wrong, so the pages have to be displayed by a proper
web browser.

but maybe getting rid of the Writer based online help is already part of
the goal, i don't know.
