I do use Info+ to obtain http://screencast.com/t/p62ccMRqmjM: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (require 'info+) ;; show breadcrumbs in the header line (setq Info-breadcrumbs-in-header-flag t) ;; don't show breadcrumbs in the mode line (setq Info-breadcrumbs-in-mode-line-mode nil) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- But it'd be nice if the highlighting was in Emacs by default, to serve all users who don't have such a customization.
