Qt 4.4 has a new QtHelp module, and it looks we might be able to add content 
from plugins.  In that case, the assistant wouldn't be used anymore, and the 
help viewer would be just another window in the application.  That would 
allow for viewing html pages embedded in a plugin and things like that.  Or 
it might be possible to create a wrapper that can dynamically create html 
from server manager xml.
