This has nothing to do with the new format, which actually is
fully supported. Not highlighting index menu is an old feature.
I guess the reason for it was to reduce the time of preparing
usually very large index nodes. (Look for the relevant line
`(not (Info-index-node))' in `Info-fontify-node' and the user
option `Info-fontify-maximum-menu-size'.)
