Thanks; looks good to me -- go ahead and push (with NEWS/doc entries).

Eli points out that it'd also be nice to use these commands from outside
the *Help* buffer, too -- and that's true, but it's kinda unusual for
commands to act that way?  I can't think of many other commands (except
`C-M-v') that act on the "other" window.

But perhaps *Help* is a special case here.
