I don't think requiring ~5MB (i.e. the xorg-docs installed-size) for a
single 18K manpage is fair. And FWIW xserver-xorg doesn't suggest
xorg-docs or even mention it in the package description.
Only the debian/changelog contains some informations about it, but they
seem to be broken:

xorg (1:7.2-6) UNRELEASED; urgency=low

* Move xorg-docs from xorg Depends to Recommends, closes: #427172.

xorg (1:7.2-1) experimental; urgency=low

* Add xorg-docs to the xorg package dependencies. There's some very useful
manpages in there, among other things.
