    The behavior of what you propose is different from either the current
    C-s behavior in an emacs info buffer or in standalone info.

Correct. 
    
    The message I was replying to was just asking to make the C-s behavior
    the same in an info buffer and standalone info, and allow to the user
    to choose one or the other via a customizable variable.

Correct.
