Package: motion
Version: 3.2.3-1.1
Severity: wishlist

Thanks for maintaining motion.

It's well documented. 

It seems to me that it's maintainers might receive
fewer support questions if the configuration
options listed at the control port also have links
to motion's excellent documentation.

For example, instead of just saying

    threshold = 1500

at 

    http://localhost:<control_port>/0/config/list

it would say

    threshold = 1500    <help>

Clicking on "<help>" in a web browser like firefox
would take you to 

    file:///usr/share/doc/motion/motion_guide.html#threshold

Thanks,
Kingsley
