No use of an icon? Lack of imagination? If a person is listening to Emacs (via Emacspeak) because they are driving a car, I do not want them on the same road as me if the docstring fails them. I can imagine all too well of someone else taking is eyes off the road to look at a graphic or icon on a computer screen. -- Robert J.
