The :link stuff is less than perfect since it doesn't show up in C-h v
etc.  See gnus-treat-* (e.g., `gnus-treat-from-picon' in Oort Gnus)
for how it usually ends up.  IMHO it would be better if customize
groked the "See Info node" magic and created documentation links.
Then the hint and reference would be available from everywhere, and
not restricted to only being available in custom.  Hm.  Another
approach would be if C-h v and friends groked :link.  Maybe that is
better.  Yes, probably.  Existing doc strings that contains duplicated
links in docstring and :link would need to be fixed though.
