Yes, we should take extra care not to enlarge the ELisp manual too
much -- it already prints as 2 large volumes.

But we can include stuff in it that will not be included in the
printed copy, like we already do in the user manual: use @include
under @ifnottex condition.

I don't have a problem with either alternative, FWIW.
