Is not a problem, but lots of packages allready build py-package,
py3-package and if the default policy is to split the docs you will
have also py-package-docs.
Pro:
- Less size of the port when you dont need the documentation, if you
add to the number py-packages required for several packages this would
be pretty good!
Con:
- 3 packages instead of 2.
- A little more complexity in the Makefile to make docs only for one flavor.

In my opinion, packaging docs for this small ports is a waste of
space, time, effort and bandwidth. They all have docs online...

But you are Marc Espie, I remember your name since I was a teenager!
so you tell me how you want this done. (Is no joke, :D )

In a previous conversation with Stuart Henderson he said that there
was no need to split if the "files aren't large", in this case I would
consider them medium size...
