Or maybe I lied. That functionality would be nice, but I do think an index is still a little short-handed.

I realize it is not all that you want. I would like something more as well and in fact built part of it for my own use. Makes keeping my world better organized then pen and paper.
However what your asking for is really not trivial. The technical aspects aside the publishing, liscneing and other aspects are really huge and SJG is unlikely to want to deal with those issues. If they were ready then they already would have. But your talking about something that would be very resource intensive. the index would be a prototype that could later be expanded if it was agreed and that other issues dealt with.
Propose or get someone to propose what you want but I dont see it happening at this time. the Index however seems likely to pass approval and if it is liked then maybe an expansion would be more seriously considered.
