If the footnote style is 'Separate' then `makeinfo' creates
a separate node with a normal cross reference that leads to it.
I tested both footnote styles, and they work consistently
with Info navigation, so I'm closing this report as fixed.

Severity: wishlist

Hello,

It would be nice if Info supports footnotes, just like
`org-footnote-action' in Org:
(1) When at a footnote reference, jump to the definition.
(2) When at a definition, jump to the references if they exist, offer
to create them otherwise.

Or another choice: make footnote.el support Info.
