??? The doc string is displayed by default, fully expanded.  So why
would you need to "expand" it?  What am I missing?

Even if I'm missing something above, and you don't see the full doc
string by default, wouldn't it be better to have a special command in
the Custom buffer to expand the doc string, than tweak "C-h v" to do
something special in such cases?
