texinfo manual index entries for @vindex etc

It'd be good if the texinfo manual had entries for vindex and friends in
the "Command and Variable Index".

I tried Emacs info-lookup-symbol on @vindex, hoping it would go to a
relevant node, but that func needs an entry in the "Command and Variable
Index" for where.  Would it be as easy as below (untested!)?
