Finally got around to trying this out.  Cool!

What are your thoughts on integrating this?  It seems to me that all
of these things should be built at the same time as when we build the
main info files so that the user doesn't have to.

I'm not sure about how to integrate the new per-package docs though.
Maybe we can arrange it so that when the package is loaded, the lisp
file for the documentation is also loaded?  But that means no docs
unless you know to load the package.
