In many cases an index entry is referring explicitly to a specific
heading. Example:
** Installation
:PROPERTIES:
:DESCRIPTION: How to install a downloaded version of Org-mode
:END:
#+cindex: installation
In such cases I’d prefer to able to attach the index specifically to the
heading. Much the same way that I prefer to give a heading a custom_id
property rather than putting a <<label>> after a headline.

My bad, I must have accidentally looked at the version before your recent
changes. The keyword is already better.

Either is fine. Though I don’t think it’s less simple to have a key.
#+index: key :type cindex.
