Texinfo's HTML uses CSS, which I think emacs does not support. Also,
emacs' Info machinery would need some work to adapt it for HTML.
I think some 'cheap' changes in info, such as the presentation of source
code and emacs key sequences, in my unqualified opinion, are worth the
effort at this point.
