I am sorry, I haven't had as much progress as I had wanted to. I
realized that the discrepancy between documented behavior and actual
code exists in a larger number of commands than I had expected. So
the question becomes: for how many commands do we want to include a
remark in the docstring saying that due to historical reasons they
call prefix-numeric-value not in their interactive specs, but
scroll_command calls prefix_numeric_value in its body, which defines
how these commands interpret the argument. (The actual wording in the
docstrings should probably be different.)
I guess for the built-in functions scroll-up and scroll-down as well
as image-scroll-up and image-scroll-down it is most important to
mention this and we could leave the docstrings of other commands
untouched. What do you think?
