What about the case where I have a book in <part>s? I tinkered with this code a bit (and added support for setindex in the FO case) so that <index> always indexes the book it's in. Setindex always indexes the *whole* document. I just don't think indexing from the parent of index makes much sense and it completely breaks for books that have parts.
