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.
