Menu and Info seem to be among two of the most common buttons on
remotes for STBs.  Menu/Home/Youview/Sky brings up a menu to make
choices sometimes context sensitive and info brings up information
usually without expecting a choice from the user.  Certainly during
playback they are very distinct operations in my mind, maybe slightly
less so in other contexts but I think still applicable.
