F2 then file:/usr/share/doc/pkg or
xless /usr/share/doc...
or maybe kpackage
appear to be the least painful ways to get docs on demand

This would need to be done through debconf; and probably end up being
prioritized so it doesn't pop up unless you choose to see all the
config stuff (so it would hardly ever be seen anyways).
I did a little work quite awhile back where I was aiming for the
syntax, "seedocs <package-name>", with a list of all potential doc
files in the package being spit out. I ended up with a scaled down
version of kpackage for the core.
