[Lazarus] F1 Help Doesn't Work for ReadLn WriteLn?

It would seem that in Lazarus doesn't give F1 context sensitive help for
certain built in functions such as ReadLn, WriteLn and a few others
functions and types. These two functions are definitely in the online help.

I understand that ReadLn, WriteLn are made using a bit of compiler magic,
but is it at all possible to modify the way that context sensitive help
works to allow linking of these and other magic things to the appropriate
web resources such as:

https://lazarus-ccr.sourceforge.io/docs/rtl/system/writeln.html

Such as an internal dictionary override should help not be found by
scanning sources, which is how I assume it works currently?
