I think the second patch is better, because it doesn't rely on
the location of the [back] button.

It is not possible to implement it with the current `help-xref-stack'
variable. A new variable could be added that will record the full
Help history. And it might be as useful as full history of Info nodes
where an additional variable with full history was added recently.
