I had exactly the same thought.  I suspect that if the install target were
modified to install the html-ized sections of the lib reference manual pydoc
could grovel around in sys and find the root of the library reference manual
pretty easily.  If not, it could simply redirect to the relevant section of
http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/.
