 One issue that springs to mind is that help-char might not be set to
 C-h. 
Yes. The patch I sent to xemacs-patches handles that. This will do as
a solution for 21.0 until we find a better general solution.

 Maybe lookup-key could perform the help-char test? 
Something like that.

 The main advantage of the current help-form/help-char mechanism
seems
 to be `transparent' help, i.e. (next-event) is unaffected by the use
 of help-char. How useful is this exactly? 
However the help-form stuff is not local which means for instance
when you C-x o out of a minibuffer your C-h handling is screwed up.
