One more thing came up on IRC: einstalldocs (and therefore the default
install function) installing README* that catches README.html as well.
I'd rather not add more dohtml-like magic and say it's fine.

Or more generically, it's fine to install HTML docs outside
${docdir}/html -- as long as docdir ends up being sane. That is:

1. single or small number of not-really-linked-together HTML files may
land in ${docdir} directly,

2. trees of HTML files (references, handbooks etc.) should land
in a subdirectory of docdir (via docinto; dodoc),

3. ${docdir}/html is recommended for commonly used HTML documentation
(the reference manual, for example). However, packages may use other
subdirectories if they see fit (e.g. when there's more than one tree of
HTML docs).

What do you think?
