There is a special buffer-local mode tabbar-local-mode, but it requires explicit enabling in every Info buffer. So I agree that a simpler solution is to not overwrite the global value of the header line at all when Info-use-header-line is nil as implemented in your patch. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
