Description

When IndexTerms use the Zone attribute to point to index ranges, it may be handy to hoist them out of the flow and put them in the document meta-information.

The ITermSet element, which occurs in the DocBook containers for meta-information, is one place to put them. ITermSet is simply a wrapper around a group of IndexTerms.
