The tutorial might look like this:


Now you can create a new frame. Try

File->New Frame
[Show Me]


Clicking on show me would just do this. Given Emacs' architecture, this
should be straightforward to implement. In the idea world, you'd see the
menus opening and things being selected. This might be a little harder,
but still plausible.

I lack the time to implement this but it becomes possible, once we get
away from the idea of a tutorial as a text file you can edit.
