The option to turn on/off QIF doc pages doesn't seem to be part of the
default schema settings. I guess I should put together one of those
"schemas" directories for the QIF importer, right?  Alternatively, we could
just change the sense of the setting to "Hide documentation" rather than
"Show documentation" so that doc pages are on by default, even if you blow
away your .gconf settings.

Any opinion?
