I would just like to point out that anyone familiar with writing a 
Texinfo-format manual who wants to combine this with Org mode would likely just 
want to embed Org constructs, like Org tables in the manual; not to use Org as 
a formatter that exports individual source blocks to form a Texinfo manual 
(literate programming style).  This is because their focus while writing will 
be on the manual and its formatting, not on Org markup that exports to another 
markup.

I hope this is considered in your strategy.
