That would appreciated by new users as they would have a convenient and intuitive way to know the key binding. This without having to use keybinding ("C-h b", "C-h k", "C-h f") to find out about frequently used keybindings. Immediately getting to use ("C-h b", "C-h k", "C-h f") can be overwhelming to new users, particularly for school aged kids (aged = 7-14).
