If the images would be separated, it would require either a package for each 
single application, or that always get the images for all packages in a kde 
module even if you only install one. Both a bad idea.

So how about another solution A+B
A) A special "html documentation package", containing the html documentation + 
the images, but that can't be installed together with the program.
B) Docbook documentation + images are together with the program always. If 
someone who installs the program want the html documentation, they are 
generated from the docbook at installation time (or later if so desired).

So in this scenario the html documentation package is only meant for 
installation on servers. After all, the html doc package is a bad idea if 
someone only want a single program, since you get documentation for all 
packages in a kde module. And then you would really want to have the 
documentation in your own language. Not everyone speaks english.
