In case the user enters M-x apropos RET paste RET, it would make more
sense if the response is an informative message:
Note: Emacs uses the term "yank" for pasting text into a buffer.
It could then offer to search using "yank" instead of "paste".
This would have the benefit of teaching the user the proper terms.
