Yes, please.  A manual that lacks Concept Index is not a good manual,
IMO.  In fact, Concept Index should be the very first index in a
manual; there are some good manuals which have only that and nothing
else.

Documentation improvements and fixes are always okay on the release
branch.  (But please hurry, since I plan on releasing Emacs 29.1 soon,
barring any grave bugs that will be uncovered.)
