I do something similar to what you are talking about. I roll my own help 
files, by saving those posts that I think will be of any help in the 
future. In the open source spirit, I read them or at least skim over 
them enough to get an idea of what to title them. I then save them as a 
file (with my new title and the ext _info). What you are suggesting, is 
probably not going to happen and even if it did, I would continue to 
make my own titles, so that they will have *my*  idea of what they 
should be titled, rather than someone elses. After all, *I* will be the 
one that has to find it when I need it.
