Summary: anchors in the generated index

Initial Comment:
consider this mouthful:

<firstterm><emphasis
role="first"><function>CLOS:NO-PRIMARY-METHOD</function></emphasis>
 <indexterm id="no-prim-meth"
significance="preferred"><primary
id="no-prim-meth-i"><function>NO-PRIMARY-METHOD</function></primary></indexterm></firstterm>

and
 
<index id="idx"></index>

I want to be able to write (elsewhere)

        idx.html#no-prim-meth-i

to refer the users to the location of 
NO-PRIMARY-METHOD in the index.
Unfortunately, the ID of the element `primary' 
is not passed into the file idx.html.

since some index entries are merged,
an <a name=""/> is probably needed
instead of just an id="" attribute.
