[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
It was hard to figure out how to remove a trace from a function. There's no
mention in the trace-function, trace-function-background functions at all
about the untrace-function and untrace-all.

The only hint about how to remove the trace is that it's advice, "This
function generates trace advice for..." which isn't helpful enough.

You can reproduce this bug with these commands:

    C-h f trace-function
    C-h f trace-function-background

and notice the lack of mention of untrace-function and untrace-all.
