Thanks, I recall recently browsing the completions of `M-x shortdoc-*'
to guess the entry point that displays all groups.  It would be
nice if `shortdoc' displayed a list of available groups -
in the buffer, without requiring the minibuffer and completion.
Then typing RET on the list of groups could call `shortdoc-display-group'.
