If you often switch between loaded manuals, then this is easy to do
using the minibuffer history commands, e.g. after visiting two manuals:
M-x info-display-manual RET gnus RET
M-x info-display-manual RET emacs RET
switching between these two manuals:
M-x info-display-manual RET M-p M-p RET
M-x info-display-manual RET M-p M-p RET
BTW, do you know that an easy way to switch between manuals is using
`C-1 C-h i'
`C-2 C-h i'
`C-3 C-h i'
etc.
This is similar to switching between numbered frames
with e.g. `C-2 C-x 5 o'.
Do you switch them using frame numbers or frame names
with the command `select-frame-by-name'?
Maybe then `info-display-manual' should be renamed to
`info-select-manual-by-name'?
