Maybe people will know better if definition-name would be documented.

I think the place where it should be documented is the suggested *Help* screen, with a sentence like "To ensure an accurate identification of the place where `frobnicate' was defined, the definition-name slot of the `frobnicate' symbol should be set."

But is it of interest for _users_? I'd rather see it in Elisp manual.


It should be documented in the Elisp manual, indeed. What I said was a bit unclear: I meant that a reminder should be displayed in the *Help* buffer. With this, Elisp programmers who are not aware of that subtlety would become aware of it.
