Actually I had a look at this, and I'd suggest rather to use an icon (as
initially Bruno suggested) instead.
This for 2 reasons :
1) an icon (especially if colored) attracts more eyes than text and is
immediatly perceived by brain (think about roadsigns),
2) could be used in any theme.
I just quickly searched and found only this one
http://www.freeiconsweb.com/Gif_icons/black_icons.jpg (information icon)
Bruno suggested to use a blue Atlassian(?)'s icon (Opentaps uses it I think)
but we did not

Hans,
I just had my 1st look at the Help and this help button.
This is truly great, really cool stuff, I like it!
I would just suggest green instead of red, and maybe red in other cases.
Thanks
Jacques
PS : Thanks also to Sharan for her very appreciated help on the help feature.
