It's not really important anyway, since they're not required by Bookshare and most people don't bother with them.

Since most authors don't index their own books anyway, perhaps it is equally redundant. On Mon, 31 Mar 2008 22:58:17 -0400, you wrote:Your analogy is faulty. Putting Do Not Eat warnings on inedible objects is simply redundant. Knowing what an author thinks is important is not.

Sure, it may be nice to know what the author felt was important enough to put in an index, but that seems about as important as the do not eat warnings printed all over inedible objects. I've tried to include indexes when I scan just because I figured if nobody wanted it they could remove it, but the whole practice seems rather pointless.
