Perhaps a strategic assertion when adding commands?
Here's a couple of other things we noticed during the discussion that
prompted this patch - lesser improvements than mentioning "apropos"
prominently, I think:
- The help output doesn't mention which class a command is in; this
might be useful, for finding related commands.
- I didn't even know "help all" existed until now. I couldn't find
it in the manual, either.
