Handling Org markup in the general case is difficult because INDEX
keywords, as any other keyword, are not parsed. You can force latex
back-end to translate the value of the keyword for a partial support of
Org markup (e.g., no macros besides those defined by default, no noweb
syntax in Babel).

If that sufficient, you can ask `org-latex-keyword' to first split value
at exclamation marks, and send each part through `org-export-string-as'
in order to get valid LaTeX markup.
