Ugh, it's been a while.  Probably more than a year ago there was a wiki
firefox extension that would allow you to wiki about any website on the
net.  I'll look for it.

Additionally, a relatively simple way is to use the approach on :
http://ofbizwiki.go-integral.com/Wiki.jsp?page=FAQ21

All you would change in the new app/apps is the header in the
main-decorator.  

It has been suggested that every full screen definition should have a
body tag id that makes it unique to ease css styling anyway.  
ie:
<set field="bodyId" value="catalogMain"/>

So in the header of the new app you create a link
<a href="http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/${bodyId}";>click here for
help</a>

Now if you use the new apps instead of the current ones, you'll have
the link and the only thing you'll have to monitor is updates to
controller.xml for that app.  But that should be changing soon as well
as David perfects some work on ecomclone.
