Oh, sorry, didn't see that you want this feature packaged as part of a
theme.

If it's in a theme, in page.tpl.php you can add an if() statement checking
the path and then adding the text based on it or in template.php under
preprocess page, you can check the path and then set the $vars['help']
variable, which will be sent to page.tpl.

Not sure if this is Drosher (Drupal Kosher) but it would work.
