*Help* buffers downcase function arguments depending on the font in use
(if it supports italics?).
Changing a buffer's contents based on the font is use is not appropriate
since we have multi-tty, the same buffer can be shown simultaneously in
an X11 frame and a tty frame, and the properties of the font used in the
X11 frame can be very different from the ones used in a tty frame.
So changing the buffer content _by_default_ is not a good idea.
AFAIK we do not do such a thing anywhere else in emacs.
