Could you explain what change in behavior this > is supposed to result in? In an elisp mode buffer, "C-h C-i nth" opens a window with the "List Elements" node from the elisp manual, but showing the top of that node. With the change instead the window position shows the "Function: nth" part and highlights `nth'. Similarly commands or variables from the main emacs manual. (This is the purpose of the prefix/suffix regexps scheme in info-look, hence the terse changelog entry.)
