This was my first thought but then you have two problems:

1) online docs can be for new version while the user is for various
   reasons using older version - so the docs would not match either

2) privacy: this is the biggest issue - if someone clicks on the
   helpsys link (s)he transmits the url of the own ZMI via
   referrer (in 99% of all cases). This might be ok for zope.org,
   but I doubt this is ok for anybody elses website where who knows
   has access to the logs.
   I fear unless we play some ugly javascript games, there is no
   real way out of this. Maybe at least the url should be
   restricted to zope.org.
