When you hit C-h C-h in Emacs, you get this:
"You have typed C-h, the help character. Type a Help option:"
I think "the help character" should be changed to something more
appropriate, such as "the help key". While "the help key" is not
completely accurate either for C-h (but is for <f1>) it is better than
calling <f1> or C-h characters.

I don't see a need to keep open this particular report, which was marked
"wontfix" some time ago.
