OK, I have to admit I don't much experience with the DocBook XML issues you encountered when working on gimp-help but since I played with this stuff for developer.gimp.org I cannot follow this argument.

But I would perhaps make sense to setup the framework and encourage people to contribute help for gimp-2.0. We could setup some text that is displayed for all missing pages and that explicitely encourages people to write help on this topic.
