Manpageview (see
http://www.drchip.org/astronaut/vim/index.html#MANPAGEVIEW), which
handles several kinds of help (vim, manpages, perl, php, and python),
has a TMan command, which provides help in a separate tab. As a
variant, there's OMan, which saves your window(s) and opens the help
page in its stead (and a :q will restore your previous window(s)).
