vi-keys are actually modeled after Less more than after vi.

What would you suggest that `j' an `k' should do in Info?

Well, both Less and vi don't have an equivalent for such a function, so I 
simply relocated the normal RET to its C-x sibling.

(FWIW, the current key bindings were reviewed by one hardcore vi and Less 
user, and he was quite pleased IIRC.)
