Right now, we have the pages broken up into two sections:

- core, which are all listed there
- contrib, which are listed under the contrib link on that page

If you create an additional ecommerce module page with all the modules 
underneath which you mentioned previously, this would necessitate moving 
some of the contrib module pages into that area. Then users might miss 
the modules that they want documentation for other uses. Regardless, 
this still breaks the current organizational structure.

Instead, why not create an ecommerce module page as a child page here:

http://drupal.org/handbook/config/contribmodules

As subpages of that ecommerce module page, include the admin/help for 
those modules which are included in the ecommerce download. Then provide 
an additional subpage with links to the other modules that would be part 
of the normal contrib list. This seems a good strategy for other 
modules, too. For example, the forums admin/help page could have a 
subpage linking to contrib modules that are useful for forums (e.g., 
subscriptions or subscription).
