bug#66750: Unhelpful text in C-h v for variables with a lambda form as value

Didn't know about this feature.

I like the idea of keeping better track of the origin of lambda
expressions (tho, admittedly, the same problem occurs with other kinds
of data: I have several times been faced with a keymap or a char-table,
wondering where the heel it came from).

I took a look at

    git log -p main..origin/feature/named-lambdas

but that's 127kB, so ... could briefly describe the overall design
(IOW, how it's seen by ELisp programmers, byte-compiler hackers, and
ELisp users)?

Also, what other approaches have you considered/tried and what were the
problems you've encountered, if any?
