Oops, I missed that, sorry. Updated webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jlahoda/8178109/webrev.01/

(I tried to delegate to the command completion, but it turned out there 
are small but significant differences in how command completion and 
documentation needs to work, so only adding a support for /help /set 
<keys>.)
