Well, I'm not talking about the PDFs, I'm talking about the HTML manual, 
e.g. http://soft.proindependent.com/doc/manual-en.tar.bz2 -- that when 
installed, can be accessed from inside the qti program itself.

But looking at the HTML, it says it was output from DocBook, and that source 
doesn't seem to be included.

Still, if upstream would provide the docbook source itself, generating the 
HTML would be fine. The HTML docmentation is much more useful, and can be 
generated with free tools. (If a proprietary tool was needed for the PDFs, 
we could just not ship PDFs.) 

Anyway, I agree this is a wishlist bug, but I think it's an important issue 
in general. Without the manual, qti is not particularly simple to use. =)
