Problem finding klipper docs (locally)

If I launch the clipboard widget (klipper), click "Configure
Clipboard," and then click the "Help" button, I get the dreaded
"Documentation not Found" page I wrote in 2014. (I just discovered
this because someone sent me a message because my email address is on
that page as the author.) He's on Suse Tumbleweed, and I'm on Gentoo,
so I don't think it's a packaging problem.
However, if I open khelpcenter and search for klipper (how is someone
to know that "klipper" is the name of the "clipboard" widget?) the
documentation is present.
So, I'm wondering if Klipper is actually calling KHelpCenter with the
wrong name for the doc it is looking for.
Separately, when that happens, there is no way to know what page
KHelpCenter was asked to find. Would that be a useful enhancement to
request? (Showing the name of the doc requested when it can't be
found.)
I'll also probably try to update the "Documentation not Found" page to
add a note not to contact the author of the page for help, as he will
just tell you to follow the instructions on the page.
