Not exactly. He said "user commands (with the prefix map `C-x n')". I
don't know whether he was against defining other user commands, menu
options or other ways to do that. I would be *for* defining them. Just
not as general user commands.

Again, user commands in the C-x n prefix map. And I would agree with
that. Even if it is sometimes (how often?) useful to be able to widen
the restriction in an Info buffer, that restriction is a programming
convenience for Info-mode (that it uses narrowing is an implementation
detail), so Info-mode should offer the way to deactivate it.
