I probably expressed myself wrong...

I'm trying to solve a specific problem with Info-fontify-node in
info.el, so I'm talking about re-filling the output from makeinfo
after the links have been mangled...  

So I don't see why this is an issue for the Texinfo team!

In any case, I think I have found a working solution by using
the following settings:

	(let ((fill-nobreak-invisible t)
	      (fill-individual-varying-indent nil)
	      (paragraph-start "\f\\|[ \t]*[-*]\\|[ \t]*$")
	      (paragraph-separate "[ \t]*[-*]\\|[ \t\f]*$")
	      (adaptive-fill-mode nil))

and then use fill-individual-paragraphs to do the filling.

Seems to DWIM, but I need to test it some more.
