See
http://svn.codehaus.org/geoserver/trunk/src/wms/src/main/java/org/geoserver/wms/GetFeatureInfo.java
in particular the identifyRasterLayer method.

In short:
- to perform a identify on the raster you have to load the coverage
- some coverage stores do not have inner tiling and/or cannot lazy load them
- you don't want to load a massive amount of raster data in memory
-> the solution is to load a coverage which is a very  small subset of
the raster,
    in the area where you need it

Hope this helps

Cheers
Andrea
