Re: info.el should use easymenu

Easymenu is already used by many packages so it's not exactly an alien uncommon package. Hrvoje> add-submenu and add-menu-button are the only Right, Documented Hrvoje> Interfaces. I don't wish add-submenu and add-menu-button obsoleted, btw. What exactly is wrong with easymenu? It is a much simpler API for putting up menus and popups than the raw calls are. If everything already uses easymenu, all we have to do to upgrade the entire editor is write a spiffier backend to it. This is not possible if the API is more loosely specified. It provides portability -- it allows the same code to run on FSF Emacs and InfoDock. What is so wrong about standardizing on an already fairly standard interface (formally undocumented though it may be)?
