I'll implement any *clear* spec for multi-language help patches someone comes up 
with with the following constraints:
1. it separates design from content.
2. in only requires documentation writers to care about content.
3. it does not pigeonhole help patches into having a single, ugly design
4. documentation writers will be guaranteed that whatever they write, it won't 
overlap patch content.
5. it is maintainable and scalable

Sounds like .html.
