[dev] [patch] Ansel doesn't honour online help setting

[Roel Gloudemans]

Where to put the option in the Horde configuration?

I see 2 possibilities:
1) Menu settings
2) User capabilities and constraints (where the help option is)

I would choose option 1, but there is also something to be said for 2

Cheers,
Roel.
