In general, I see nothing silly about making the manual look better.
More specifically, references to other manuals are relatively rare, to
the best of my memory.  And there's no need to rewrite all of them at
once: we could do that whenever we find a problem.

As long as XML didn't replace the current Info format, this option is
a bit academic, IMHO.
