I agree it is a bit strange, but the reason for it is simple : I would
like a single entry point for all the manuals installed on my PC, so
that my old and tired brain does not have to remember where the manual
is located, and what format is it written in. So it would be nice if all
the manuals were just listed in the info top level menu.
So, for manuals that are not written in Texinfo and which I have only a
PDF, HTML, or whatever, I would like just to create a direntry with an
url to the concerned manual.

Got it.  Strange use case, but whatever.
