There's precedent for some modes using ? for a quick help. I wish I
could remember specific examples - mainly because I can't recall if it's
external packages.

Regardless of that, C-h m for describe-mode works in *every* mode, not
only the ones that derive from special-mode.

I would argue ? is wasted for this command, but that's probably a much
longer conversation, changing special-mode is a whole other topic :)

But for this conversation in particular: no harm binding ? to quick help
in vc-dir-mode, IMHO.
