Don't I just wish I could.

Right now everything about the converged Unity 8 interface is in complete flux, and with the 16.04 LTS current being
planned as a Unity 7 based release, that is unlikely to change for the next cycle.

My plan was to re-use as much of the existing doc infrastructure as possible (eg. Mallard, Makefiles, etc) but I'm
hearing talk about a different help/docreader app shipping with Unity 8 and it may not be directly supportable through
Mallard.  I'll pass on more when I hear more.
