I imagined something more along these lines:

First iteration:
* Add a new Tex markup item whose required first argument
  would be a function name and whose optional second argument
  would be a key sequence.
* Makeinfo would make both data available in the generated info
  file.  A standalone info reader would display the optional second
  argument if present.  The emacs info reader would lookup any
  current bindings for the function name.

Second iteration:
* Modify makeinfo to accept a table of bindings.  In this case any
  optional second argument would be ignored.  Instead bindings
  for a function name would be looked up in that table and included
  in the output.
