Good, so i shall soon move roff.7 to share/man/man7 and start
polishing it such that we can install it once we feel it is ripe.
I assume Kristaps won't object to keeping the name either,
because he was the one initially choosing it.  :)

Once we will be installing it, we can then start moving class 1
stuff there.

Oh, yes, pointing that way didn't occur to me yet, but may also be
an option for some cases.
