I think you should support it. Please remember all maintainer should
use HTML for documentation (see policy). But it's a very bad idea to
browse hundrets of HTML documents without an index and a search engine.
That's the reason why we should use such a system in hamm.

No.

We're talking about this :). But this would not solve our problems
with HTML documentation in hamm.
I don't see any reason not to use it.
