This is obviously entirely an upstream issue you could suggested on r-help,
or if you must, in the upstream bug repository.

Well, Debian seems to have no policy on that.      If you don't want
to get bug reports that are upstream problems, I think there's something
you can put into your package that ends up as a notice in reportbug
to discourage people.  (Sorry, I can't provide details; I ran across it
four or five years ago...)


A present the bug report is close to useless as r-doc-html contains six
different manuals. So which manual was this, and which section do you find
wanting?


Well, it's section 7.1 of the HTML documentation,
as was noted in the subject line of
the bug report.
Sorry for not giving the detailed file name; I thought it
would be obvious.

The problem is in

/usr/share/doc/r-doc-html/manual/R-data.html
