"Command History mode:
Major mode for listing and repeating recent commands."
Ok, if it's so major, then why are its C-h m output so brief? At
least it can say "I am just a listing with no special keybindings,
Holmes." if that indeed is the deal. Maybe it might suggest some
activities while one is there.

An over estimate of the brain cells at this end. Plus, I would be
going down the slippery slope of helping out instead of whining.
Furthermore, I use the above program little more than one uses the
washroom at the airport, which I haven't been to since '94.
