Thanks for the suggestion! I've added three index entries for these

Why not? Sometimes, the best description is in the Tutorial.
Good question. My initial motivation was that descriptions in the
tutorial might gloss over some information to make it easier to explain,
and that this wasn't appropriate for an index entry.
I don't remember if we have some index terms that point to
several sections. If that's possible in texinfo (it's easy in LaTeX)
then you could point both to the reference and the tutorial.
We do have multiple entries for terms.
I suppose that as long as a user noticed that he was reading the
tutorial description of a term, there's no harm (especially if the index
entry also pointed to the real notation manual description). I'm still
not convinced that this is a good idea in general, but if I find some
specific instance in which the tutorial has a better description than
the notation manual, I'll add the index.
... of course, since we have 49 @cindex entries in the tutorial as it
is, I don't really have much of an argument here. :|
