Re: @table without @item

[Karl Berry]

    Also, I think that the right margin should be narrower in Info too 
    for @quotation.

I agree.  That's always been the documented behavior of @quotation,
after all.  I didn't realize it wasn't the case.  Although users will
surely be unhappy, "wasting" precious screen columns ...

    another @-command like that indents but do not narrow the right margin, 

Sounds ok to me.

    Could be named @passage, or @indentedblock @blockindent... 

Out of those, I'd go with @indentedblock.  Or @leftindented?
Or @filleddisplay?  Ugly, but more self-descriptive ...

Whatever the name, since presumably it is trivial to add, I think it's
worth doing before the release, to give people an alternative for the
old behavior of @quotation.
