You are right that duplicating the files is a really bad idea.  Using
tmpl_include on the other hand proves to be not possible because you
only may include files below templates/

But what about setting window.location.search() to redirect to the
existing help file. Example:

# in not yet existing help file  'listgroup_list_view.html'
# redirect to existing help file 'list_group'

<tmpl_include help_header.tmpl>
<script type="text/javascript">
location.search = '?topic=list_group';
</script>
<tmpl_include help_footer.tmpl>

Make sense?
