A blocklist of file names is probably the only realistic solution here,
considering how things look in the wild.

That is, this command should only list files that have ".info" in their
names somewhere, or have no suffix (except .gz) and not be in the
blocklist.  So *.el etc in the blocklist shouldn't be necessary.
