A specification could be that where

w runs the command Info-copy-current-node-name

W ? would run something like Info-copy-current-node-url, with a
documentation explaining that if an online equivalent can be
established, a link to it is put into the kill ring. Else a friendly
message is given explaining that an online equivalent could not be
derived.

As a next step some sort of convention could be established for Info
manuals to declare its prefix online URL or something.
