If people keep this unchanged, Org mode will remain useful for the
tasks it can do today.  But it won't be able to do the job for which
we now use Texinfo.

There are many different Texinfo markup constructs, so to do the job
of Texinfo, Org mode would need to be able to distinguish them all.

So the basic question is: to extend Org mode to do that job, or not?
