ABSOLUTELY! Our goal is to have these in Core, since they are (1)
small, (2) nonduplicative, and (3) may presuppose lack of connection to
the outside world (e.g. the user is having troubles and needs docs but
has no Web access). I am an Extras contributor and will be taking care
of this, no fear. But your continued input is greatly appreciated for
giving me use cases I hadn't considered. We should probably move this
discussion to f-docs-l; I'm setting reply-to and CC appropriately.
