Yep. But that does not mean that the IDE needs to do some search on it's 
own. It just could pass the appropriate info though the the (well 
defined) "help package" interface to have the help viewer do it's work.

OTOH, (for the help  tool tips) the project code can be target of the 
help search. This of course it unknown to the help viewer. So here the 
IDE might do it's own search in the project files (and pass the result 
to the help viewer via the help package interface.

(My opinion based on the current discussions)
