Sure, the minimal example that I posted already twice shows exactly this
case: The line before an indexed word appears to be missing one character
at the end.
You should try to make shorter examples ;)

This is a short sentence to check \index{test}the \tex{index} command.
This is another sentence for the test\index{test}.

The problem when you put the \index command before a word is that
it can end in a visible space at the end of the previous line.

Thanks, Wolfgang. Just to confirm: yes, this short test does indeed show
exactly the effects I was referring to. So question to Taco: could some lua
trickery somehow get around these nasty effects? Because they really make
finishing a long project somewhat difficult...
For the first case you describe theres is already a tracker item:

The effect is caused by \forcecolorhack and when uncomment
my redefinition you can see that the output is as expected
but there has to be a reason why Hans use it.
the colorhack is needed to getsomething with a reference; i'll change it
to a signal (let's see where that fails)

[NTG-context] where to place \index (again)
Hi all,
I'm in the final phase of editing a scholarly book with a pretty big index.
What follows is less a question than an observation: no matter where I place
the \index command, there can always be unwanted side effects:
foo\index{bar}: here, the entry may point to the page following the name, if
the page break falls at this position. Moreover, when this is followed by
punctuation or footnotes, there may be a line break between the word and the
punctuation/footnote mark. Placing it at the end of a long footnote is asking
for even more trouble, because there's a real risk that a page break may occur.
\index{bar}foo: the book is typeset with character protrusion, and this seems
to introduce additional material which can disturb line endings, so that lines
before such an indexed word appear to be missing one character at the end.
So this is what I observe. Working around this is possible, but painful - I
have to check every page for such bad linebreaks or misplaced punctuation
marks. My question then is: will it be possible, at one point in luatex
development, to find a more robust solution for this? This would be wonderful,
I think!
All best
Thomas

\index is connected to the next word or when on a line on it own as in
\chapter{x} \index{x} emptyline text to the next paragraph
concerning the character protrusion: that looks like a bug so if we can
have a small example demonstrating it ... esp the disappearing character
is weird
(I can introduce a couple of processing modes if needed, but then you
have to check if an index entry points to a word starting on a previous
page. In any case, changing the default behaviour might have other side
effects for existing documents.)

So question to Taco: could some lua trickery somehow get
