Fiddling with sysinstall is, I think, exactly what I'm proposing.  Why
shouldn't there be a couple of "docs" options, along with the choices
for X11, etc?  To put the matter in perspective, how would folks like
it if we required folks to add each X11 client or server explicitly?

Basically, this is an "equal time (or at least convenience) for docs"
plea.  I think that folks who want complete, convenient doc sets on
their machines should be able to say so at installation time, not be
required to pkgadd them in, one at a time.  For one thing, it isn't
always clear _which_ docs will be needed, even if you already know
the question you need to ask.  So, I'd rather have them all...
