Mea culpa. As I said, I intended my patches as RFC only.

When I added the Documentation/output subfolder, my main intention was
to separate the source documents from everything that is generated,
intermediate or final. I suggest you keep the generated files somewhere
under output. This'll be handly also when ensuring O= works.

I set up the format specific subfolders, because I thought people would
want to keep them separated and independent. For me, all the formats
were equal and at the same level in that regard. You're suggesting to
make html the root of everything?
