Agreed. It all feels fairly quirky. I think someone needs to think hard
about how to clean it up (post-22). Most likely the best way to make it
cleaner is to start by renaming with-output-to-temp-buffer: the buffer isn't
temporary (at least not in the usual sense, as in with-temp-buffer).
And help-mode-setup should probably be called directly rather than via
temp-buffer-setup-hook (after all, hooks are not supposed to contain such
"always there" functions).
