Since khelpcenter supports cgi scripting and DCOP could potentially be accessed
from a script it seems that a system could be made so that KDE help pages could
access dialog boxes in applications.
For example, a help page might say ".... and to change this setting, open the
properties dialog and click on..." where "properties dialog" is a link that,
when clicked, opens the dialog (if the application is running).
A generic command-line DCOP-caller could make this all work:
dcopcall registration_name "call"
from a CGI script.
I've no time to work on this right now (thesis time), but maybe this will
inspire someone :) (or, maybe it's already being done...)
