Not as such. but the indexing commands could I suppose be interspersed
with the XML code.  My interface uses traditional TeX type macros to
produce a beginning index file, an available translation program to
convert that file into Xindy-speak, and then the Xindy program to
further summarize and sort the index entries. The original creation
macros could be rewritten to resemble XMl I suppose and of course the
output can be reformatted in that fashion also. But no one is working
on that to my knowledge.
