Actually, it IS true. If you look closely at the mod you cited, you'll see that it does exactly what the Info Center does. It displays text files, the content of which has to be edited OUT OF THE GAME. (That mod has you create text files, then run a separate program to convert them to XML files, rather than just simply creating text files as the Info Center does. But the editing still has to be done outside of the game.)
With the exception of a few special cases which unfortunately can't be generalized (such as the "biography" section of the persona window), there is no way to edit text information from within the game.
And even if you edited the notes files with a text editor while the game was running, the updated content wouldn't show up in the game until you restarted it, as all UI files are loaded into memory when the game is initialized and aren't reread from your hard drive during play. (Well, using "/loadui" might force an update, but we all know just how well *that* command works....)
