I see you're using the word "we" a lot here -- are you volunteering to
do this work?
If there's one thing Emacs doesn't need, it's yet more formalism around
adding/changing functionality.
We already have a procedure for this that is more than 99% accurate.
Adding all this work for getting to 100% and being able to remove the
word "probably" in the *Help* buffers seems like a very strange
prioritisation.
