As a general feature, I don't think there's that much use for it,
because it's a bug if a mode clears out `text-scale-mode' (and other
minor modes) when the command regenerates the buffer.
So I've now fixed that in the help functions in Emacs 29 -- by finally
rewriting `with-help-window', which is something I've been planning to
do for years, anyway.
