Currently, Eglot has a menu item that opens
https://github.com/joaotavora/eglot#readme. I think opening that URL
doesn't make sense anymore since eglot.texi is the primary source of the
documentation. Is it OK then to remove this menu item?
It seems I couldn't clearly articulate my other suggestion. When I
write this reply I can click on the mode-line to open message-mode-menu,
but this menu is also available from the menu bar. I'd tried to suggest
something similar to Eglot.
(The last item in message-mode-menu is "Message manual", so there is
prior art to what the patch of this bug report tries to achieve.)
