That sounds like a good idea to me. The way of linking to the relevant
ubuntu-docs local page would be to have a link which opens yelp with
the uri ghelp:internet, or ghelp:internet#network-manager. However how
can we deal with the situation where the user running firefox doesn't
have yelp or ubuntu-docs installed?
