One last thing (I swear!).
AFAICS ‘stexi->plain-text’ already does paragraph filling, so the call
above is redundant (and could break the rendering.)
However, the width of the rendered text is fixed, unlike what
‘string->recutils’ did so far. To work around that, we’ll have to
monkey-patch the ‘wrap*’ procedure of (texinfo plain-text), along these
lines:
(define %text-width
(make-parameter (or (and=> (getenv "WIDTH") string->number)
80)))
(set! (@@ (texinfo plain-text) wrap*)
(lambda strings
... #:line-width (%text-width) ...))
and then in ‘package->recutils’, we need to ‘parameterize’ that.
We need a similar hack for #:initial-indent, that would allow us to
mimic the 3rd argument of ‘fill-paragraph’.
Could you try it?

LGTM!
