"On-line" means all on-line formats, including HTML.

What do you mean by "it doesn't cope" -- who or what is "it" here?

makeinfo does not need these pointers in the Texinfo sources to
produce them in any of its outputs that are meant for on-line
browsing.  That includes HTML (and Info, of course).
