Yep.  It's a big doc/help problem, IMO.  And
we've moved more and more stuff to things like
`cl-defstruct' (which in itself is fine).

I don't see a good general solution to this
problem.  But it is, I think, something
important for the quintessential
"self-documenting" editor.  I truly hope that
some smart and ambitious hacker tackles this.
