                            ^
                            RET

That'd be nice, but it would mean changing the signature from
        (defun man (man-args) ...)
to something like
        (defun man (topic &optional section) ...)

In any case, it's only 1 character fewer than `M-x man RET kill(2) RET'.

That _would_ be nice, but it would require the same change.
