Is there a reason that help-for-help is page-scrollable with Space/Backspace and C-v/M-v but not PageUp/PageDown, and line-scrollable with the mouse wheel but not Up/Down arrow keys? A newcomer will try those and be surprised by the help buffer silently disappearing. Shift+Space should probably also act as “scroll a page back” on terminals where this key is distinguishable.
Adding PgUp/PgDown and S-SPC support sound like particularly good improvements to me as well.
