24.3.50; Inconsistency in the way of presenting the filename in info buffers. |

Hi,
If I open an info manual with `C-u C-h i <path-to-info-file> <RET>',
the modeline of the *info* buffer shows the info file name including
also its ".info" extension. E.g., if I open the emacs manual that
way, I see `*info* (emacs.info) Top' in the modeline. But when I open
that same manual via `C-h r' or `C-h i m emacs RET', the ".info" part
is omitted.
I don't see the point of this inconsistency.
Unless I'm missing something, TRT here would be to always omit the
".info" part, since I guess it is always the same. But in any case,
the way of showing the filename in the modeline should not depend on
the way of opening the info file.
