Those interested in the PDF output for Texinfo might like to try the new 
support for "PDF page labels" implemented in commit 0133695d7.  With 
some PDF readers numbers that are actually printed on the pages as the 
page numbers rather than page number 1 being the very first page in the 
document (which would usually be the title or bastard title page).  (I 
tested it with okular and xreader - xpdf seems to lack this feature.)
I tried to test with different combinations, e.g. the contents at the 
end of the document.  I did not support bizarre document structures such as 
the contents being in the middle of the document.  There are at most 
three numbering schemes used: T-1, T-2, ... for the title pages, Roman 
numerals (i, ii, iii...) for the @contents and/or @shortcontents, and 
the regular Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3, ...) for the main content.  I'd be 
interested if the implementation caused bad results for a plausible 
document structure.
