Works for me. But Juri's `finder' looks better than `info-finder' so
perhaps `info-finder' can be folded into it.

I thought it would make sense to link what package.el will manage into
finder.el and other Emacs facilities, so this would no longer be true.
finder.el would show (clearly marked regarding their state and repo
origin) available, installed, and activated packages; there would also
be a way from there to install and activate a package, either internally
or through a link to the package.el UI. Do you disagree with that
proposal?
