r runs the command Man-follow-manual-reference
Get one of the manpages referred to in the "SEE ALSO" section.
Specify which REFERENCE to use; default is based on word at point.
OK, but what if it doesn't get the one I want? Do I have to go all the
way down to the bottom of the page, and put the cursor on the one I
want, or why can't this please be enhanced so the user can, right
there in the minibuffer, use e.g., ESC P and ESC n, or the arrow keys
etc., to go one by one thru the list of references, so he can hit RET
on the one he wants!

This is now implemented in the development sources.
