Another example I had in mind is our virtual keyboard. We have a new feature that no one knows about, where if you press tab you can toggle between:

Arrow keys select on-screen-keys

or

Arrow keys move cursor

Some little, out of the way help-text box would be the perfect way to tell users about that. I don't think there's any intuitive way to express something like that other than to flat out tell the user. We could even have an option to turn off all "help text" for advanced users, or leave it up to skinners.
