Sure. I agree with you in most of what you say. The sad story is that being an open source project you can't count on finding someone do this for you.
Not that you might like the answers, but...
Now this is personal opinion, but would you call a FreeDOS version 1.0 if the HTML-Help tool wouldn't reflect the accurate status of the programs in the distribution?
Most certainly. I see as bad on commercial programs post-1.0 to this day. It's been too long in beta to quibble over those details.
And how much time does it take to update an HTML file once that you have done it for the first time?
Properly? Might be ten minutes, can also be over an hour if you write in detail or about a complex option, or worry about word choice, format, instruction presentation, etc.
1 minute?
Almost never. Take you well over a minute to get to, open, write, exit, test, and repackage without any text additions. Unless you're set to do it to see how fast it can be done. Real life situation, nope.
