Local URIs to use via file:/// in Firefox.  Maybe linked from the
relnotes.

I'd like to see there be a sort of envar $FEDORA_NEAREST_DOCS_URI that
can be set for a user so that Firefox goes to this URI for
documentation.  That lets people get content locally when offline or
behind a restrictive firewall.  

Or am I just weird?
