Documentation on

Just noticed this evening that the documentation for

:help <space>

doesn't distinguish between "l", <right>, and <space>. However, at
the end of a line (if 'nocp' is set) <space> will proceed to the
first character on the subsequent line while "l" and "right" don't.
To repeat,

$ vim -u NONE -c "set nocp" multiline_example.txt

then "$" to get to the end of a line. Try "l" and <right>, noticing
they don't do anything. Try <space> and it takes you to the next
line.

Should the documentation be updated to reflect that difference?
