I added a note about DISPLAY-FLAG in interactive calls, but in general
you shouldn't expect this to be spelled out in the ELisp manual,
because interactive invocation of commands is described in the Emacs
manual, and the ELisp manual is biased towards non-interactive uses.

??? It's the default interactively, but not in non-interactive calls.
It should be clear that non-interactive calls don't necessarily want
to display the cloned buffer.
