New separators suggestions for the index

[3darkman]

I loved the new separator specifications to improve the index format, unfortunately they still don't suit me completely, so I'll leave two suggestions for new separators:
 

• separator between subtopics, as today a line break is always used.
• separator between the topic and its subtopics, as today a line break is also always used.
• also an option to choose the position of cross-references, which by default are coming before the subtopics, but I would like them to come after.

I would also like the panel to show the document's index options instead of the ones I used for another book several days ago. The panel always shows the last-used options which makes it difficult to format multiple documents' indexes at the same time. The only way to know what the options are for a document is to look at its existing index. And since spaces and dashes may be hard to discern, convert the index text to unicode so that you can retype the options in the panel. I like all the new options but I find it quite frustrating.
