Hi,

In emacs-lisp-mode buffer, C-h S can find symbol from emacs and elisp
info manual, but I find cl-lib is used a lot in many places, so I want
C-h S works for symbols from cl-lib info manual too.  There are also
some other emacs related info manuals, I don't know whether it is worth
supporting them as well.

Thanks.

+1, and also there are packages that do exactly this, such as Info-lookmore.
