Yes you can. We do it today, I've done it elsewhere, there is no problem
at all. The search itself won't be static of course. But it can search
the static parts without any problem, and if the search breaks for some
reason, the static content is still available. And still searchable
through google or whatever your favvo engine might be.

Not sure what you refer to here, so I can't answer that.

Uh, no? Then how do we do commenting on our documentation today?

Yes, please, because I still don't see anything that can't be solved
within the framework of our curernt static mirror system.

Then you have to declare what a "real KB" is. Compare to for example the
Microsoft kB, which is probably the biggest in the world (that's a guess
only, but I think it's a fair guess). It mirrors just brilliantly as
static content.
(though they could do with a way to browse it in a hierarchy, but they
don't. They do that with MSDN, which incidentally also mirrors just
fine)
