I actually just ran into this yesterday and completely agree! I ended up just C-c-ing out and used -p.

The other thing that was frustrating with that was that the help text for what commands do is printed before everything, so if your window is small and there's a lot of output, it's not obvious that the ? you typed did anything other than re-print the hunk. It seems odd to not print the help information at the end so you will always see it (unless your window is less than one row tall, but.. you're probably here for dragons anyway in that situation).
