I've been using TrackStat for a long time, and quite a while ago (years)
I noticed that some of the default indices were missing - no idea why.
Back then, I also added some other indices. Since I was writing this
plugin anyway, I decided to include them - since I use 'IF NOT EXISTS',
existing ones won't be affected.

Which indices do you mean? The ones taken from TrackStat should use the
same names afaik.

I guess Michael would be the person to assess which index is of general
benefit.

Back then, I probably did, but that was a couple of years ago, so I'm
rather hazy on the details.

Generally, maybe, but since the plugin's main purpose is to change
various DB parameters, so it'll be difficult to isolate specifics.
