This would be awesome!  I especially miss emacs' apropos
which would be a fantastic addition.  We also need something
for vignettes which slime probably doesn't have.  I guess the
challenge there is which format the user wants.  With
DocView PDFs will work; and, of course, there is also
the .R and .Rnw code.  The next release will be very
interesting!
