I don't think that the problem should be linked too much to the chapter-
definition. The problem is the new-start of page-numbering and that does not 
depend on a chapter definition.
It's true, that in my cases (and perhaps on the majority of cases) the page-
numbering restarts at every new chapter and therefore including the chapter-
info into the index-entry would solve the problem, but only, if all pages 
appear in the index. If they do, the chapter-info should be considered as a 
part of the page-numbering and not as simple information for the whole index-
line.
Solution a) doesn't help, for it's still the same problem: the index doesn't 
lead to all entries.

I'll try to explain in english, but I've little knowledges only, so I hope it 
would be clear:
When page-numbering restarts one or more times in a document, we've not only 
one "page 1" but two or more times. "Page 1" is no more a unique definition.
But the writer knows the "real" page-number and I think, indices should base on 
this "real" page-numbering, but show the "formatted" page-number. 
That would mean, when the option "combine identical entries" is activated, the 
entries should be combined seprately for each page-number-range.
That might give indices like:

Flowers 1,2,1,1,2,3
or
Flowers 1,2
Flowers 1
Flowers 1,2,3

But even if that seems to be a mistake, it is more correct than

Flowers 1,2,3

If there is outline numbering defined and the page-restart depends on the 
breaks between the chapters, the user can include the chapter-definition an 
should receive something like:

Flowers I-1,I-2,II-1,III-1,III-2,III-3
or
Flowers I-1,2,
Flowers II-1
Flowers III-1,2,3

Perhaps it would be usefull to show a message when an index is created in a 
document that has more than one page-number-range.

(the roman numbers represent the outline numbering)
