I don't have time to do the research, sorry. But since something like
"(emacs)Top" is enough to get "M-x ffap" do the Right Thing, I find it
hard to believe that what I said cannot be done with some customization.

Here's where we differ: I find no reason whatsoever to educate users
to go to another browser, where Emacs already supports the same
functionality.

At least on GNU/Linux. you could use file:///usr/local/info/emacs etc.
