Comment:

 The new patch [attachment:trac_8533-browse-doc-take3.patch] does the same
 thing as the previous two. But here are the changes in this new patch:

  * Remove dependency on #8442 and #8469.
  * Use John's idea of invoking a document using `lambda`.
  * Allow for browsing the following documents from the command line: FAQ
 and all the thematic tutorials in the standard documentation so far.
  * Doctesting the `lambda` functions that are used for browsing the FAQ
 and the thematic tutorials.

 John's idea of invoking a document using `lambda` is not cheating at all.
 I implemented that for the FAQ and the extant thematic tutorials, and have
 provided doctests.
 [[BR]]

 With [attachment:trac_8533-browse-doc-take3.patch] offering a completely
 new implementation, it renders John's previous positive review
 ineffective. Sorry, but I have to move this ticket to "needs review"
 again.
