I don't see the relevance, sorry.  When I type "C-h" with
which-key-mode on, I see a paging hint at the bottom line, and that
hint simply doesn't work (and nothing else I tried does).  By
contrast, the vanilla "C-h" doesn't say anything about
describe-prefix-bindings, so the problem will rarely if ever happen.

IMO, this UI needs to be improved, certainly if we want to turn this
mode on by default.  For starters, how about using the usual Emacs
scrolling keys for showing the next/previous page?
