&gt; Each modification-restricted HOWTOs can turn into a problem for the

&gt; he has to find them and toss them out.
Perhaps (and this is just a thought) this second problem could be solved
by either maintaining a list of non-free documentation, or more drastically
by keeping the non-free documentation in a separate section?
