It would be good to make a concept index, but please index all the
concepts mentioned -- not just the ones that are names of secxtions.

If you look at @cindex commands in the Emacs manual, which has a very
thorough concept index, you'll see that there are @cindex commands for
many concepts which do not appear in section titles.  This is the way
to do a complete job.  Please do a complete job for EPA too!

If you search for @cindex in the Emacs manual sources, you can see
this quickly.  Looking through 20% of the manual should be enough to
give you the picture.
