    I think it would be a lot less annoying if it at least changed the
    prompt to say what it was doing, in the manner of a wrapped isearch
    ("I-search in node ...: " ?).

    Maybe it could even act more like wrapped i-search, and fail once,
    before proceeding to the next info page if you hit C-s again.

I agree (I suggested both of these things).  Would you like to
implement them?  Juri, could you possibly do so?
