Hmm... I'm afraid some people will go mad when this becomes the default. :) The key bindings you are proposing seem to be most similar to those of 'links', which is not what most people use for a browser. In most browsers Arrow Up and Down simply scroll. Arrow Left and Right scroll sideways, but as this doesn't make sense in 'info', those keys could instead be made synonyms of [ and ]: previous and next node. To me the most useful default key binding would be somewhat like --vi-keys with the addition of cursor-movement-scrolls=On and the above mapping of Arrow Left and Right. Anyway, when implementing a different (default) key binding scheme, please make it configurable via a command-line/config-file option, so it will be easy to switch back to the traditional beviour.
