We decided first to support manuals that come with Emacs, and Gawk's
manual doesn't.
Supporting all GNU manuals is a much larger job, since there's no
single base URL from which they all can be reached (although many of
them can be reached from the GNU site). Also, the arrangement of the
manuals of the other packages is slightly different from that of
Emacs, which needs more specialized processing.
So I think for now it should be enough to have only the Emacs manuals
by default, and let users add more associations for other packages if
they like.
