The API Documentation and HelpAPI Documentation and Help states:

If the help URL is requested in a common web browser, a HTML styled version of the JSON help will be returned. Otherwise, the JSON help will be returned.

However, I would expect that adding ?type=jsontext would override that behavior.

Also, making that request from my app also results in HTML instead of JSON.
