The policy you're proposing (and incidentally, also the Debian policy) is
that literal. Requiring good documentation makes sense (though it's hard to
define "good documentation"). Requiring it to be in manpage format and to
document the command-line options (and not requiring anything else), even
for GUI apps, doesn't.

How useful is a manpage like this?
http://manpages.unixforum.co.uk/man-pages/linux/suse-linux-10.1/1/kalzium-man-page.html
(That's exactly what you get if you consult "man kalzium" on an updated
Fedora, it's the manpage which Debian contributed to upstream KDE.)
