I think we should provide a "generic" way to provide some of the
`elpa-packages` contents directly from the package's own files.
I was thinking of something like a
;; ELPA-spec: (:readme "README.md" :doc "clear.texi" ...)
there's a security implication, so we'd need to "sanitize" this info
before using it, but other than that it should not be too hard
to implement.
But to get back to the "real" problem of images: in order for manual
`foo` to be able to have (working) cross-links to manual `bar`, it's
important that they are both exposed as `.../doc/foo.html` and
`.../doc/bar.html`, so they can't both use an image with a relative
URL of `snapshot1.png`.
