* doc/emacs/misc.texi (emacsclient Options): Document the effect of

Do not document server-host, which is bad security practice.

autoloading.  Document help-enable-auto-load.

* doc/emacs/mini.texi (Yes or No Prompts): New node.

Remove mention of unimplemented horizontal scroll bars.
(Drag Events, Motion Events): Refer to "mouse position list".
(Accessing Mouse): Document posnp.

* doc/lispref/errors.texi (Standard Errors): Tweak arith-error description.
Tweak markup.  Remove domain-error and friends, which seem to be
unused after the floating-point code revamp.

* doc/lispref/functions.texi (Obsolete Functions): Obsolescence also affects
documentation commands.  Various clarifications.

-  Documentation strings can contain several special substrings, which

-rearranges the key bindings.  (@xref{Keys in Documentation}.)
+  Documentation strings can contain several special text sequences,
+referring to key bindings which are looked up in the current keymaps
+when the user views the documentation.  This allows the help commands
+to display the correct keys even if a user rearranges the default key
+bindings.  @xref{Keys in Documentation}.
+
+  In the documentation string of an autoloaded command
+(@pxref{Autoload}), these special text sequences have an additional
+special effect: they cause @kbd{C-h f} (@code{describe-function}) on
+the command to trigger autoloading.  (This is needed for correctly
+setting up the hyperlinks in the @file{*Help*} buffer).
