Do I understand correctly this could be as "simple" as defining an

<indexterm> elements I could maybe do something similar to

<xsl:accumulator name="indexterms" as="map(xs:string, element(indexterm))"
    initial-value="map{}">
    <xsl:accumulator-rule match="indexterm"
      new-value=" map:put($value, generate-id(), .) "/>
 </xsl:accumulator>

and at the end process the content of the accumulator?


Again, I don't know what exactly you'd need to put into each map
entry, but yes, this is the idea.
