 doubt this stems from one of the other tickets you mentioned.

 I think that it is because of the `toctree.rst` files. If I understand
 correctly, Sphinx will not detect a rst file as "indexed" unless it
 appears in some toctree. The current methodology seems to be the following
 1) Create a toctree.rst file that only contains a toctree
 2) Point to toctree.rst in the index file where nobody notices it

 This way the toctree appears as far as Sphinx is concerned, and we are
 free to order the modules as we like instead of letting Sphinx do the job
 with a big 'toctree'.

 This being said, I would say that simplifying this could be possible by
 just having this toctreee in the `index.rst` file and adding the 'hidden'
 SphinX keyword.

 Plus we would not have to carry a reference to the toctree.rst file when
 we do not want one.

 Thanks for your review,

 Nathann
