I agree, but I think the configure option should be --htmldir, and it should only install HTML files (exclude .cvsignore, Makefile*, *.sgml, *.sxd, etc.).
That goes against common practice; see what's in /usr/share/doc on your typical linux machine, e.g.
As a matter of fact I'm the one preparing xmlsec's /usr/share/doc for a typical machine (Debian), which is why I found the need for --htmldir. It's common to put html docs in /usr/share/doc/<package>/html/. I've been doing that manually, but it's inconvenient without configure support.
I like --docdir installing any and all non-manpage docs.
The xmlsec package couldn't know what I need to put in /usr/share/doc/<package>/ to meet Debian policy. Such a general function wouldn't be much use.
Just as there may be a special place for man or info pages, a distro may have a special place to collect HTML pages.
