Another reason it might be reasonable to write info files directly
(like a wysiwyg editor, only without much wys or wyg) is that it 
seems possible to automatically generate a texinfo file from an info
file.  For the cases where there is information loss going from
texinfo to info, the user may supply some annotations that may be
hidden during normal info mode but shown during edit info mode.
But we probably have to wait for version 19 to implement this fully.
