    I notice that docs say that the `HierarKey' (hate the name though) menu
    is displayed one line at a time, with SPC showing subsequent
    lines.... this seems rather annoying, especially if the menu is only two
    or three lines long.  Why not just show the whole thing at once?

When the HierarKey menus were implemented, the echo area was not
expandable.

    Expanding the echo area isn't particulary intrusive.

That's true, now.  Would you like to change it to do so?
