I am not really convinced this is a good idea: at the current point of
time, man-pages are not pulled into they user manual or any other
complete reference tome.  So they are basically standalone.  Even if
they weren't, I think it does not make all too much sense for a
porcelain command to point to the documentation of a plumbing command
for much of its functionality.
