OK I see it now.
There is a reason spc may be used ... to complete.
if you `i' info<spc> The `i' is converted to uppercase then press
<RET> you go to `22.8 Completion for Symbol Names' If you press spc
twice then you get `Info index' which goes there to.
So the <RET> in first instance finishes completion then jumps there I
guess. Any way that was the source of my confusion.
So it seems the index search already leads to this info quite well.
Sorry to have wasted your time.
