Follow-up Comment #26, bug #52775 (project octave):

The reason for the use of @sortas is to clean up an index having to cover
words, symbols and whatever else in an organized and uncluttered fashion. 
Look at a copy of the octave.pdf from before and after all the changes.  Older
Texinfo versions and release-note history?  I just read the Texinfo manual
which said @sortas{} does what it does, and hey it worked.

What is wrong with option 1?  I don't see it as that important that HTML and
PDF indices should match the exact same position (the fact one is
single-column, the other two-column is already noticeably different), plus it
will self-correct as Linux bundlers update their Texinfo versions.
