Yes, I did.

Not that I see.  At least not in Emacs 26.3
(or 27.1, or the latest 28 MS Windows
snapshot I have).

A link (as the enhancement request says).  Not just
a textual mention of the manual's title, but an Info
link.

And while we're at it, please consider adding a link
(a link) to the Emacs manual, as well.

Textual references are great.  Linked textual refs
are even better.

BTW, "This manual" can be misunderstood in the last
sentence you quoted.  We presumably want it to mean,
like the first "This manual" of the paragraph, the
Elisp manual.  But immediately following mention of
Eintr, it becomes a bit ambiguous.  Better to make
explicit which manual is meant.
