Here is a good (i.e. bad) example of inconsistent and, in my opinion, 'noisy' index entries. This comes from repeats.itely --snip-- @node Written-out repeats @unnumberedsubsubsec Written-out repeats @cindex written-out repeats @cindex repetitious music @cindex repeats, written-out @cindex repeat, unfold @cindex unfold music @cindex unfold repeat @cindex unfold repeat with alternate endings @cindex unfold music with alternate endings @cindex alternate ending in written-out repeats @funindex unfold --snip-- Yes it's nice to have all the possible ways to say the same thing indexed for the 1 user that might choose to look for 'repetitious music' (!!) but please, isn't this just silly? I don't have all the answers but I am sure we could standardize some of the index entries.
