Comment #5 on issue 855 by v.villenave: fix the command index
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=855

I'm not sure that having a "variable" index would make much sense to most  
users. I think separating more clearly the "General concept" index from  
the "LilyPond index" would be welcome (i.e. "what you want to achieve"  
vs "what you have to type to achieve it").

Re. the backslash-alphabetic-order problem, I have been desperately trying  
to achieve it (I suspect a simple one-line regex would do the trick), but  
without any luck so far. Even more so when you consider that it should be  
handled by both texi2html and texi2pdf.

I agree that anything that comes with a backslash *should* be indexed with  
its backslash.  If we ever get around this alphabetic order problem, that  
is.

... And, yes, I suspect it's a terrible time to revive this issue.  But I'm  
glad I'm not the only one seeing this as a painful splinter in LilyPond's  
foot :-)
