Well, this is embarrassing. I can't reproduce it in a NEW document, either. In
the document in which I discovered it, however, it is DEFINITELY still an
issue: the indexing dialog boxes open and remain at around two and a half times
their normal width and can't be resized narrower, so they are constantly "in
the way." Unfortunately, that document is a proprietary manuscript that I'm not
free to disseminate, so I can't post it as a sample or test document. I don't
have the time right now to develop a complex sample document mimicking the one
I had the problem in, so for now I'm going to have to leave this bug in
NEEDINFO status. Besides, a different indexing bug I reported previously --
about unwanted entry and key field repopulation behavior when the Insert Index
Entry dialog box loses and then regains focus -- is MUCH more serious and
worthy of attention than this one.

Oh, and to answer your question, "long" index entries would be where the
"Entry" field contains the equivalent of two or even three ordinary sentences,
punctuated with commas. I suspect, but haven't had time to confirm, that using
semicolons (;) in the "Entry" field may cause Writer to crash (and render
autosaved backups unrecoverable) after six or seven such index entries are
made. I stopped using semicolons in index entries and haven't had any crashes
during indexing since then.

Thanks very much for having taken the time to follow up on this. I'm sorry it
turned out to be idiosyncratic and apparently non-reproducible in an ordinary
document. All the best.
