It looks way better and more useful than the old way. The only issue I have is that the subentries aren't indented enough. I think it would be easier to read if they were indented by default by, say, about 4 chars or so to make the subentries stand out a bit more. If you glance at the index, it's easy to miss that the items are indented.
