Is the program's calling convention something that needs to be
customizable for this to be useful?

Is it customary to have HTMLized documentation material for
different packages all together in a single .../share/html/
directory, like manpages are placed in share/man/man1/
directory? I somehow had an impression that a layout to have
html directory per package (i.e. share/doc/$pkg/html/) was more
common. I dunno.

This is sloppy in the presense of potentially unsafe characters...
