If the selected text becomes the index entry, the text retains a gray
background. If text is selected but then changed in some way for use in the
index entry (for example, to change an upper case letter to lower case),
then the index entry is marked by a small indicator. One can also add index
entries without selecting anything first; in this case, again the entry is
marked by a small indicator.
