First, it's not like the docs' version is not displayed on every page
at the top and bottom :)

Still, I can see that it would be helpful if it was kept visible all
the time.  I've experimented with some CSS to make the top navigation
bar sticky; however I could not find a way to do this without the
heading being hidden when jumping to an anchor.

If someone has a patch, please step forward, but please let's put this
discussion on the doc-SIG.
