Comment:

 So where are we now?

 * Keeping the HTML docs are apparently the consence
 * The current doc are not searchable
 * So can we user the technology behind the Sphinx search be used for
 GRASS?
 * What about other approaches like Whoosh [1]?

 Ideally, the search would be on the website but also in the wxGui.
