I've been using a local hack which causes the *man...* buffers to be
displayed early rather than late.  The main reason was to avoid
interrupting me with a new frame at some random time in the future.

So I'd welcome such a change.  My local hack isn't installable as is:
the output shown temporarily in the buffer is rather ugly (because the
buffer first gets an unprocessed output and then cleans it up and adds
faces.  Usually the intermediate ugly states are not shown, but after my
change, they are).
