In looking through the release notice, it seems development 
matters are largely driven off of bugzilla entries.  I don't 
know that these 'nits' have been expressly filed, nor indeed 
if the RHEL documentation is produced via Publican, but here 
goes:

Problem 1:
Kerning causes 'scrapes' off of a PDF to have embedded white 
space -- an example is as follows:

	and

Problem 2: 

Page numbers are not 'hot links' in the PDF 'table of 
contents' rendering (compare contra PDF's generated in a some 
LaTeX markup / DVi / PS / PDF chains) -- the 'circled' page 
number in an index, when clicked, does nothing

I built a quick example of a large set of documentation (in 
part machine generated) -- see pg 4 ff of the PDF

Question:

Are these 'interesting' bugs that I should file, and would a 
fix in Publican flow into later versions of RHT documentation?

Thanks
