(info "(info-stnd) Node Commands") says: `l' (`history-node') Pop the most recently _selected_ node in this window from the node history. So it's a bug in the stand-alone reader because it returns to the node that was not _recently selected_. This behavior is confusing for users. >> >> 1. Eval: (info "(elisp)Macros") >> >> 2.

I agree that it looks like a bug, but I don't understand why it's coded explicitly that way. Perhaps the intention was to implement this behavio= r only when the value of `Info-scroll-prefer-subnodes' is non-nil?
