Comment (by ncohen):

 Yo !

 > Catalog is used in the following spots :-)

 Wanna see how many times "index" appears in Sage's source code ?

 combinat/crystals/catalog.py

 Catalog is used a lot indeed, and we usually call "catalog" all the
 'things.<tab>' objects. If I make no mistake, what you want to change is
 the text "Index of constructors" just before the list of them ? In this
 context I believe that "index" cannot confuse anybody, and I also believe
 that it is correct as an index is "an exhaustive list of things".

 Also, I do not believe that there is any standard with respect to the use
 of 'catalog' in this context, i.e. a list of methods.

 Either way, you can change it if you like. And the same goes for renaming
 `poset_examples` to `posets_catalog` `:-P`
