I think that the SQL help site should default to empty. When empty, the
HTML Help that we ship will be used. When not, the help will function as
previously, using the non-searchable, possible web based help.

No it doesn't because there are no links from any of the pgAdmin help to
the PostgreSQL help (just tested it).

There is probably no need for a seperate project I agree. We can easily
call the PostgreSQL help directly (or any SQL help for that matter)
using wxHtmlHelpController::Display(wxT("pg/index.html")) or something
similar.
This way we have just one help system for everything, except the
PostgreSQL help *if* an alternate source has been selected.
Comments?
