Yes, indeed. But looking at the code, it seems like the basic info-look
infrastructure doesn't really want to support Eli's idea here. That is,
for `emacs-lisp-mode', we want to register a bunch of regexps that map
to different manuals (i.e., if the symbol starts with rmail, look in the
rmail manual and so on), but there's just one regexp per mode.
So it seems like a bigger rewrite is necessary here, unfortunately.
