Working example

Checked how competitors do the trick and it's more or less the same (beside
Latex): the recommendation for MS Word is to use table of authorities.

So basically it's possible out of the box to insert a definition list whether
per alphabetical or user-defined index. The workflow is to insert index
entries, which is pretty simple. Use the actual word, for example "file", as
First Key and enter the full description under Entry. Apply to all similar
texts sounds also like a good idea. And ultimately insert a ToC with
alphabetical index using a different caption and some tweaks on the entries and
the styles produces a DL as expected (the numbers in front doesn't look like an
index; if needed it might also be possible somehow).

I vote for WFM.
