I agree with Jens. This is the feature from planet1 that I miss the most.

For my packages, I host rendered documentation with github project
pages. For example: http://stchang.github.io/parsack/parsack.html

To create a project page, I manually create a gh-pages branch
(https://help.github.com/articles/creating-project-pages-manually) but
I agree that something more official would be good.
