The Info browser doesn't actually do anything with the contents of the File: field in the node header line, as far as I remember. Info files function equally well without them. If Info readers were going to do something with the File field, then texi2any should properly quote it if it has a comma (I checked that it doesn't at present). Do you know if the Emacs Info mode does anything with this field? Commas did work ok in an Info file name when I tested, although this may be more of an accident of the implementation rather than anything anybody has thought about.
