Want to do it? Yes I might have a go at that. It might be possible to cooperate with Info-index-next to show alternatives to the best match. The same perhaps for duplicate matches, like when say "echo" is in the bash manual and the coreutils manual. But that'd probably need a change to the way the info-look caching is done (if I'm not mistaken duplicates are suppressed).
