That is the standard TeX convention. Texinfo, for making PDFs, is
based on TeX so Texinfo uses the same convention.
There is a project to replace Texinfo with a new input format.
(Unfortunately we can't use the other existing clean input formats,
because none of them can make all the distinctions we need to make.)
If you would like to be one of the developers, please let me know.
