Leaving a piece of the manual out like that is not okay.
If this feature is too new for the currently required makeinfo
version (which is it, btw?), we have two real choices:

 1. bump the minimum required makeinfo version so we can use it
 2. don't use the new feature

We could also have an @else that spells that bit out without
using @click/@arrow, but I don't think the benefits of a
clicksequence (or @arrow) justify the extra maintenance
burden.  IMO.
