Yes, exactly; I meant the window, sorry the wording, I guess my thoughts were elsewhere.

Generally I agree, I personally prefer one buffer, but I am not sure if it is
*the* best chocice to limit users on only one help buffer at a time. I don't
think I personally have enough experience to actually decide anything on that matter.

For that reason, the way I coded patches I sent in lately regarding help buffer,
I work with it as if there was only one *Help* buffer, and relying on Emacs to
return last one in case there are *Help<1>*, *Help<2>* etc.
