I think a new package would be cleaner.  It can always borrow ideas
and even code from info*.el, as appropriate.

In addition, I suggest to look at the Javascript code developed by
Texinfo, to maybe reuse some ideas and look-and-feel.  There's no need
for Emacs to depart from what's there where commonality makes sense.
