So we have different opinions. Help only says: "Create from: Use this area to
specify which information to include in an index."

Yes, because we have an index of figures or an index of tables and not in index
of captures ;-)

I see your point, but I can't say if this is common or not (can't remember,
that I have seen it)

I think we shouldn't take into account every "mistake" a user can make.

But we don't have to into a deeper discussion here. Now I know, that you
understand my POV. and it's of course up to you or the design-team to decide.
