Yes, more like `help-for-help'.  Or rather, I'd like to see a little
library/function for these kinds of things, that allow the immediate
response of a `read-event' loop, but which doesn't disable scrolling
with the scroll bar and mouse wheel.  And which has, as an option, the
possibility of not exiting when entering a non-bound key.
