"i" is more similar to C-h C-i.

Adding the Gnus index node should work, something like this:
(info-lookup-add-help
:mode 'emacs-lisp-mode
:regexp "[^][()'\" \t\n]+"
:doc-spec '(("(emacs)Command Index" nil "`\\(M-x[ \t\n]+\\)?" "'")
("(emacs)Variable Index" nil "`" "'")
("(elisp)Index" nil "^ - .*: " "\\( \\|$\\)")
("(gnus)Index" nil "`" "'")))
You need to do `M-x info-lookup-reset' before it takes effect.
