Checked. It's not a bug, it's a feature ;-)

Doxygen 1.7.3 (the version Matt used to generate the docs) uses a new
HTML technique to create the html layout with frames. This looks much
better than before (IMHO), but there's no "embedded" non-frame layout.
All pages include the frames, and therefore main.html is missing.

Personally I don't like the new inheritance graphics (since doxygen
version 1.5.8 or 1.6 - compare with the still older online docs), but
I see that the new layout is much better and we should use it.

Thus, we shouldn't bother to provide a main.html file, but rather
add a sample html page for the html viewer test (as Greg volunteered
to do already) and add appropriate browser links where needed.

I don't know what to do with fluid, but I think that fluid should
probably use an external browser for its docs as well.
