The description of `show-help-function' says that Tooltip mode provides
an example. Where is a user supposed to find this example? Is she
supposed to look at the code defining `tooltip-mode'?
Also, this text is a bit misleading because it says:
Tooltip mode (*note (emacs)Tooltips::) provides an example.
That could easily be misread as saying that node `Tooltips' of the Emacs
manual provides the example, instead of (what it does say) that Tooltip
mode provides the example (but how/where?).

I've now clarified that the example is in the code of tooltip-mode.
