You are right. The help is now (almost) complete, and we can have a
general view over it.
I agree with the changes you propose.
My suggestion is about the GIMP function reference you didn't develop. I
think it must reproduce the Toolbox and Image menus : only one structure
for the interface and the help:
III- The GIMP function reference
A. Toolbox Menu
1. File
2. Xtns
3. Help
B. Image Menu
1. File
2. Edit
3. Selection
4. Display
5. Image
6. Layer
7. Tools
8. Dialogs (only dialogs listed in this menu entry)
C.Filters
