 should happen could begin. Personally I am not in favour of throwing away
 all the strongly marked up work we have done in the description.html files
 in favour of the rather erratic and obscure markup of reSt for those
 pages. Perhaps 'finicky' is a better word. I'm happy to see the help pages
 get pretty, and yes reSt+sphinx-alikes is very pretty, but would like it
 to be in parallel, and reSt translated from our existing HTML docs
 automatically (ie the description.html parts), in the same way (or better)
 than the man pages are now.

 yes no problem for me to keep both versions
