If you want to have both, the work for the porters wouldn't decrease at 
all, only if you would allow to choose between the formats.
But that would result in a bad user experience which should be the 
least in our interests. So we don't get around some extra work in any 
case.
Providing HTML docs only (with additional command line tools) would 
provide the best user experience, but I think the work-around with a 
Web+ add-on would definitely be acceptable as well.
