This isn't working for me, while the help doc is opened, the topic for "foobar"
opens in another window.

I have even tried :view '$VIMRUNTIME/doc/help | setf help | help foobar' with no
luck, the help topic always open in another window.

I'm amazed that something that seems so simple is so difficult to accomplish in
the most powerful editor :)
