AFAIK, index nodes are just normal nodes with a big menu.
Thus index entries have the same format as menu entries:
* NAME: LOCATION. DESCRIPTION
It's just that traditionally index nodes use an empty DESCRIPTION
and align all the LOCATIONs so it looks like
* NAME1: LOCATION1.
* NAME2: LOCATION2.
Adding a DESCRIPTION of the form "5." is just as valid as "(line 5)".
Now if the node has a new special index-tag (can't remember what it looks
like), maybe things are different, but with old-style index nodes, it looks
perfectly valid to me.
