We have to be careful about relying on CSS.

For information, I checked the new index output in the "links" webbrowser
(which is a text terminal browser and doesn't use CSS) and the output
appeared fine - there was always at least one space between the two columns.

This was also the case with "w3m".

The tables in "lynx" are not lined up at all but this is a known limitation
of this program.

I think in a graphical webbrowser without CSS, the worst that
can happen here is that for the occasional index entry, there is
little or no space between it and the node link in the next column.
This seems like a price worth paying to get rid of all the  
from the output, so I am happy with this change.
