           Summary: reduce number of docs shown in help browser by default

I find the help library that is active by default in KDevelop is quite a bit too \
extensive and thus extremely cluttered.  The percentage that will actually use the \
'GIMP Thumbnail Library Reference Manual' is probably rather small and I dont think \
items like this should be enabled by default.  Of course it is possible to trim it \
down manually in the Kdevelop options but to be honest its quite a chore to disable \
all the docs one by one.  I would suggest to take the opposite approach and start \
with an empty help library and a big friendly button for adding documentation items. \
Or start with very few commonly used entries, such as the STL library for C++ \
programming.  Although personally I think starting completely blank would be a better \
solution.  When adding an item to the list, a dialog should ask if one wants to add \
this doc for all projects or just for this project.
