This specific case of log files came up in

	http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=11732&tstart=90
	http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=18391&tstart=0

The latter resulted in 

  6492262 It should be possible to add reference to service specific log
    file(s)

which you can view at
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6492262 .

A more general "help text" field seems innocuous enough.  If nobody
comes up with a good reason against it, file a change request on
bugs.opensolaris.org .
