How to use both nvl and index access without creating functional index ?

Hi,=20
I have to use NVL function ( or similar ) in where clause.=20
I need to have column accessed via index.=20
Creation of functional indexes on nvl(column_name ) can not be done
for all columns
( political and other reasons ).=20

Is there a way ?=20
