Severity: wishlist

Is there any benefit to `make-command-summary' in comparison to
`describe-bindings'?  It seems strictly worse, and even produces rather
broken output in several cases, for example:

M-)		paredit-close-round-and-newlineESC C-<right>	paredit-backward-barf-sexp

If there is no benefit, perhaps makesum.el should be obsoleted.
