That command looked so nifty that I thought adapting it to :helpgrep
might work well:

:command! -nargs=+ MyHelp execute 'silent lhelpgrep <args>' | lopen 6

And to my amazement, it did.
This is great because I hated having to open the location window
myself every time I used helpgrep, and I had no idea how to change the
default behavior.
Thank you!
Plowing through the help files is much more pleasant now. In fact, I
wish something like that were the default behavior for :helpgrep. It
just makes more sense, it seems to me, to let users choose from the
results first, instead of jumping to the first file.
