Actually, many people (including myself) do refer users to RTFM.  I just 
never bother about copying the node name; instead, I use "M-/" to type 
only a small part of the name and let Emacs complete the rest.  To me, 
"M-/" is a better way, since I never need to switch buffers or move the 
mouse.

Perhaps we _should_ have a way to copy mode- and header-lines.  Adding
that sounds like a valuable feature in and off itself.
