Well, this is not quite true Stefan,
Right now if you want to contribute to the docs you have to do quite a bit of work (git+bugzilla workflow), even if you do this everyday, it can be quite annoying and distracting to stop everything that you are doing to ammend documentation (opening a bug request, describing it, coming up with the patch, uploading it).
My intention with the web interface is to enable a contribution queue that people can edit and submit inline that doesn't require any of this and that the maintainer can review once in a while.

Agree, but one important part is that the tools are working in a way,
that people to see them as an annoyance and turn it off. gtk-doc has
quite a bit of legacy here unfortunately that is not easy to change :/
