Re: @menu puts too many restrictions to produce the .info file

[Christopher Dimech]

I attach a file to see how I used floats to display images
where indenting makes sense as in standard languages.

Things are fine with sectioning, title, ... and can use whole
line.

But I see many instances when users want to include many
@if* statements, including within other constructs.  I see that
conditional expressions can become very important for large
works.
