There was also [email protected], perhaps Karl could tell if
its archives are still available somewhere.  I found its archive from
August 2003 to June 2008 (when it was discontinued) here:

There was this discussion in 2003:

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2003-05/msg00055.html

(it continued in June).  It mentions @value and macros as potentially
useful commands in node names.

Also this one, which provides a real use case:

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2003-06/msg00044.html

That's all I could find, HTH.
