The place to argue for a change > would be the Texinfo list, but it sounds like that ship sailed. Emacs Dev has nothing to say about the format used for Info? Interesting. Too bad, truly. Emacs has a long tradition of font-locking `...' in doc strings. Why? The reason for that (readability) is an even stronger argument for doing the same for Info, where it matters even more. And that would have been a good argument for Texinfo to keep the `...' syntax for Info. Alas, Emacs Dev has never wanted to highlight `...' in Info (even as a user option, and even though patches were available). Again, too bad. Poor Emacs. [This is like changing Lisp to use )lambda )var) )1+ )foo 42 var))) or XML to use >foo>. Good candidates for an April Fool's joke; nothing more.]
