I think that one of the most useful parts of a manpage
is the "SEE ALSO" section. These help to learn about related
programms, of which you did not know before. I think it
makes sense to work out this section properly (and to not
share it between manual pages).
When I wrote the gnome-utils manual pages, this was the
only part, which I could not simply cut and paste from
the programs' online help.
