What is the paradigm for getting a hourglass cursor for a prolonged
operation?  I thought Emacs does that automagically, but I don't see
how that could happen, looking at the code.  It sounds like a command
that expects to be long should do that by hand, is that right?  Or am
I missing something?

The case in point is "C-h H", which (at least on Windows) takes an
annoyingly long time.
