Yes, it does clearly state, and I look there frequently.  That is the
trouble.  

To me, it is a poor user interface since it means that I must move my
eye away from the text, and then when I come back, rediscover where I
was.

By the way, I agree with David Kastrup that Info for the sighted
should have high-resolution images.  (No one using Emacspeak will
listen to either plain text or high-resolution images, so even if no
one works on high-resolution images, people who write in Texinfo
should consider using address@hidden sighted' and address@hidden blind' 
conditionals
in their work.)  I think this task should be added to the TODO list.

(Truth is, for better or worse, I think many of the current items on
the TODO list are more important than changing Info, although I
personally really like the idea of high-resolution images.  I would
like to see Emacs incorporate the other image-related enhancements
mentioned in the TODO list, as well as add a `visual dired' that uses
little thumbnails to the current Dired mode.)

Must go -- am traveling and will be somewhat out of touch the next few
days.
