Bram,
a question on vi.stackexchange.com came up, why closing the help window
triggered several autocommands. Therefore I propose the following doc
patch:
diff --git a/runtime/doc/helphelp.txt b/runtime/doc/helphelp.txt
index ce73f8c55..efbaf338b 100644
--- a/runtime/doc/helphelp.txt

:helpc[lose] Close one help window, if there is one.
+ Vim will try to restore the window layout (including
+ cursor position) to the same layout it was before
+ opening the help window initially. This might cause
+ triggering autocommands several times.
