The Nautilus help needs to be enabled by linking to the Nautilus chapter in
the new Users Guide. I've added a note to the bug report to this effect.

The help API allows for multiple files by using the convention
"ghelp:docid". While in most cases docid=appname, that is not required,
allowing multiple help documents to be be linked from the help manual, as
Nautilus 1.0.x did.
