A better Emacs *help* buffer
Hello, Would you consider adding this example to the README? I make heavy use of nested keymaps in my config, so the current example did not work well, and when...
When using `helpful-function` on `electric-pair-mode`, the helpful buffer is blank and this error shows up in the minibuffer: ``` helpful--find-by-macroexpanding: Invalid read syntax: ")" ``` It also happens with `electric-pair-local-mode`...

When I invoke `M-x helpful-variable` on any hook variable with a buffer-local value, helpful displays its buffer-local value, but no "Global Value" button to toggle its global value.  I...
'Find all references' can take some time to run, and Emacs becomes unresponsive during this time. Perhaps it can be run asynchronously, if the presence of e.g. async.el is detected?
