I don't think I had a need for one, I do use 'M-x version' somewhat
regularly: I tend to run pretest or an organic, locally sourced, fair
trade version(1) and sometimes I forget which one I am using.

The 'emacs-version' command inserts the version string at point with
prefix argument. Maybe it can show this buffer with double prefix arg?
Or negative argument.



(1) which means, version I compile myself.
