And now it isn't. (Severely lacking, that is.)

One thing that would be nice to add to the Describe Command/Describe Key 
output would be a link to the source file that defines the relevant command - 
clicking on that (a general cross-reference presentation type?) would visit 
the relevant file/switch to the relevant buffer, and put point at the logical 
place. 

Thoughts on the best way to do this? One possibility is to rely on the general 
source-tracking facilities of lisp implementations (as abstracted by Swank?); 
another would be to explicitly add the information to the relevant symbol (COM-
FOO-BAR) when compiling and then search.
