I don't object to the creation of an index, but is it really necessary
considereing thata there are many tools that will serach documentation and
even gasp index it.
Quite appart from google, how about MTLibrarian, MarshmallowLibarian, and
Project Builder itself ?
You can even index the sample code and search in that.
