If you're not restricting yourself to texinfo per se, you might wish
to consider some variants of Knuth's WEB system of structured
documentation. Two variants that I use are:

- Norman Ramsey's spidery web
- John Krommes' FWEB

FWEB has quite a few bells & whistles, while spidery web is much
closer to Knuth's original (It is derived from Levy's CWEB if I
remember right). FWEB is supposed to support both TeX and LaTeX, but I
haven't exercised the LaTeX bits at all. I prefer spider when I'm in
the mood for TeX hacking, and FWEB otherwise. There are some
irritating differences between the two, but nothing a few lines of
Emacs Lisp can't solve!

Cheers,
