The user should be able to give keywords to apropos in order to
find relevant variables and commands.  Thus user-visible variables
and commands need to be named with some care to take advantage of
the help system.  The Custom system's groupings should make finding
variables even easier but not enough variables are Customized to
make much use of it yet.
