For the short term, I very much disagree. Better indexing support can
be quickly added as a feature available on certain platforms until a
universal solution is found – and implemented.
It's not clear to me at all why you object so strongly. It is a noble
goal to make texinfo work universally, but first and foremost it is a
GNU project, and one of the central points in its philosophy that it
should work well in GNU environments, with other platforms having less
priority.

Using a wrapper can completely hide the locale.
