Then the HIG is wrong. (Calum, to chapter 11 with a pair of scissors, please...) It is far, far better for brief explanations of how to use a window to go in the window itself, than in separate help where it is read much less often.
This, as I've mentioned before, was a policy that the Sun docs team were keen on, and I was persuaded at the time to back them up with some HIG verbage.
I'd agree that in reality, there are times when it is useful and times when it is not, and if somebody would like to suggest some alternative guidance in bugzilla to give developers some good guidance about which is which, I'd be happy to oblige.
