Front ends handling help.search() results?

RKWard does, too. (More precisely: It has a UI for searching help files, which

Will this affect the structure of the hsearch class?

Currently, our implementation for showing an item from the result list is to 
simply call help(help_type="html"), appropriately. What are the implications 
of vignettes for the behavior of help(), if any (with or without specification 
of help_type)?
