Re: Colons in indices

    Any ideas how to allow colons in menu items are welcome.

In the general case, I think info readers (and generators) would have to
use something other than : as the separator in references, otherwise it
seems ambiguous.  True, you could heuristically guess depending on
whether one parsing leads to valid node names and the other doesn't, but
that seems yucky.

I don't see this happening :(.  It's too bad.
