Do the guidelines not already cover this case?
"Multiple packages own files in a common directory but none of them needs to require the others."
All of the packages should simply own /usr/share/gtk-doc.
On rawhide
# repoquery --whatprovides '/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/*' | sort | cat -n
currently returns *206 packages* and making all of them own /usr/share/gtk-doc/html must clearly regarded as a bug in the packaging in the distibution
Why? Sounds perfectly reasonable to me.
As /usr/share/gtk-doc/html is so common
No it's not "so common", it's just one directory amongst many.
