Hi.
I don't have the energy to respond to each piece of the message. Basically,
though, it's a neat idea but I really don't know if it'll work in practice.
There are some things you need in the advanced docs that have no parallel at
all in the simple docs. And I think it would be very restrictive to have to
keep all of the doc section numbers the same. REcall that LyX is supposed to
allow you to get away from needing to remember section numbers.
You *might* be able to convince me to keep things together on a chapter
basis, or at least to have the same chapter names for corresponding chapters
in the different manuals. But really, as long as you have *good* chapter
and section names, a scan through the table of contents doc should help you
find approximately where to look.
Still, I don't want to discourage you. I think it's great that someone new
is showing some interest in working on docs, and that people are talking
about stuff. I'm sure it'll yield benefits.
