I guess its possible that gtk-sharp2 will get devel docs in the future,
which would end up in a -devel package.

However, for the case of mono-nunit things are different. I don't think
putting the docs for nunit in a nunit-devel package. That would be
similar to putting the docs for binutils in a binutils-devel package.
(Of course, the binutils package has .h/.so/.a and doc files in the main
package.)
