This suggests it also handles non-losslessly-compressed formats,
how about something like this?

shntool supports .wav files by default, but has support for reading
other losslessly-compressed formats by using helper programs.
To support these extra formats, install the following packages:

I guess..though what would anyone think about just symlinking the
+DISPLAY files into $LONGPATH/pkg-readmes? That way, people who like
to install a bunch of things and configure them later would only
need to look in pkg-readmes not also /var/db/pkg/*/+DISPLAY.
And people who are just installing packages as they go and want to
handle the quick tweaks typically mentioned in MESSAGE ("add this
to rc.conf.local", "install this extra package", "set a password
or we'll cook your dog" etc) don't have the extra steps (spot
the "Look in ... for extra doc" message, look in that dir,
work out which files to read, read them.. ;)
