Details:

Hi Sergey - I noticed that Emacs now has a command Info-virtual-index, bound
to I by default, which produces a list of index matches.  It would be good for
standalone Info to follow suit, in the fullness of time.

For example, on the Info manual itself, doing Info-virtual-index on the term
"search" brings up a dynamically-generated node that looks like this:

File: /usr/local/gnu/info/info,  Node: *Index for `search'*,  Up: *Index*

Info Virtual Index
******************

Index entries that match `search':

* Menu:

* Info-isearch-search [Index]:           Emacs Info Variables.
* Info-search [Index]:                   Search Text.
* isearch [Index]:                       Search Text.
* searching Info documents [Index]:      Search Text.
* searching Info indices [Index]:        Search Index.
