So this is more complicated than it appears

we used to have multiple HTML exporters.

    tdf#105303: re-introduce single-document html export filter

we dropped the old "PUBLISH_HTML" exporter in favour of the newer
"single-document" exporter.

The old exporter exported each page as an image, which means that text on the
page is not selectable and copyable.

The new exporter tries to export text as HTML text, but largely ignores shapes.

The two approaches are completely different and yield different results with
different benefits.

There are several options here

(*) just live with the current situation
(*) Rename the current filter to "Only export text to HTML"
(*) restore the old PUBLISH_HTML filter and expose it as an option
(*) tell people to rather use the SVG export filter (which exports both text
and shapes in ways that the information is selectable)
