I think linking to the manual (as much as practically possible) from
*Help* is a good idea.  However, `info-lookup-symbol' (the innards of
which we basically have to call) is a bit on the slow side.

Would it make sense to precompute (as part of the build process) a cache
that *Help* could consult?
