I like manuq's proposal, although it may be somehow difficult to maintain. A couple of very personal thoughts: * I don't like much having the help icon just as any other icon. Instead, it could be better having an icon in a different color or different size (for instance, the question mark in red without the circle around?), and not having to click on it for having it launched. * It could be very good having in the unfolded help a link to open the wiki pages of the activity help, which could be online or offline (maybe each deployment should decide). This would be an incentive for keeping a core set of help wiki pages updated.
