In "emacs -Q":

  C-h f line-move-visual RET
  C-x o
  move to the link under "simple.el" and type RET
  drag the mode line so that the lower window showing *Help* becomes
   smaller
  move cursor to the first call to vertical-motion
  C-h f RET
  C-x o
  move to the link under "C source code" and type RET
  the window showing *Help* is resized back to half the frame

This is annoying.  I like my *Help* windows to be small, but many
times (but not always) they are resized when I need to request
documentation of something else.

Why cannot Emacs keep the size of that window?
