With all of the different programs and groups. I doubt that a completely 
uniform system for documentation can come about easily. When I do 
documentation for work projects, there is differences with the 
formatting from legacy and newer methods for saving documentation.

For finding the particular documentation, a search engine of some type 
has worked for our operation. I think that a search engine that brings 
up the basic intro for a program or process would be a handy feature. 
This would allow a uniform starting point. Then the differences with the 
  formats can be addressed through links that will launch a program that 
will read the documentations.

I use html for the info page and depend upon the associated application 
to launch from the browser. This works great for viewing drawings, pdf 
and various formatted document variations.

I think that programmers would rather concentrate on developing the 
working code. Not on making usable and easy to follow documentation.

Of course complaining about the documentation does nothing to improve 
it. Most things work, so my use of the documentation is lower than when 
first starting out.
