>>alliance with our internal software QA department

I've worked at two software companies and both were set up this way. I
report to the head of QA and I send all manuals to QA for review. "Bugs" in
the manuals are tracked similarly to bugs in the software, after the initial
release. I think it's a very beneficial alliance as long as the timing of
releases does not create bottlenecks in QA. It's also helpful for the QA
department because they get very familiar with the contents of the
documentation and use it for training, test development, and answering
questions about the software which boomerang back to them. I like the setup
a lot.
