No point in adding this as 'Information' doesn't work for Favourites.

Information already works for some content. Remember, favorites can be anything, not just movies or episodes or music. That means that you can hit i on a favorite, which for many but not all type of favs shows information.
Problem with the context menu is that if you want to add information programmatically to it, you need to know in beforehand whether this functionality is available for the fav in question. And this is currently not possible in the code. No possibility to decide whether a fav supports information.
The i button does not need to check before, it just „tries“.
Of course everything can be added, what I want to say is that this is some effort and a developer needs to pick this up.
EDIT: before you ask, same applies to play. You can hit p, but no context menu item.
