Texinfo deals with problem by mapping Info manual names to URLs of
corresponding online HTML manuals, see the link in my previous post.
The built-in manual database of Texinfo is pretty comprehensive, and
covers almost all GNU manuals, and some more. It'd be totally
sufficient for my use case.
Ideally the HTML exporter would consult this database when exporting
info links, to find out where the corresponding HTML manual is
published.
