The minor mode that reported contains the code, haskell-doc-mode, is
not distributed with Emacs; and as Stefan noted it's more correct for
it to use an idle-timer.

I suggest not making a change to Emacs at this stage.  I could add a
TODO item about "implementing a new primitive that is like
this-command-keys only it accepts reread events", and look into it
after the release.
