Basically, somebody needs to take on the task of
writing the sections.  This person should actually
use Alacarte for a bit, and perhaps chat some with
you (Travis) about anything that isn't immediately
obvious.

Once the documentation is written and in CVS, then
there will be a well-defined section in the User
Guide to link to, and you can add Help buttons in
the appropriate places.

Help buttons and menu items are stock in GTK+, so
there's no worry about the string freeze.  We can
absolutely push a Help button through a UI freeze,
so you don't need to worry about that.
