Documentation in 2.5 - still doesn't show correct document - gives xmlerr

Well, I get the doc to appear when I click on it, but things are worse
in the new RC1. Now when I do a Search for "choose", I get a huge list
of dictionary entries, each of which apparently includes the word
"choose" in its text, but the list is not in any discernible order.
Makes it completely useless.
(BTW, the choose command itself appears near the bottom of this
randomly ordered list.)
I don't see ANY value in a search that looks for text inside
descriptions of these commands. In the dictionary, the search out by
default look only for the key words themselves in the name of the item,
no? Or am I missing something here about how other people use these
things?
Now, if I click on "Topics" then a full-text search probably has real
value. But not in the Dictionary.
