Yes, this would be a good thing.

This means you'll end up building 90% of our documentation twice,
which is something I was trying to avoid with the current setup.

It occurs to me that we don't necessarily need the 'top level'
page to be generated by Sphinx -- we could just ship an index.html
which has helpful links to the individual manuals.

(https://wiki.qemu.org/Features/Documentation is the current
plan and lists the various manuals we'll end up with. 'user'
in that plan means the documentation for the user-mode emulation.)
